At Farmer Palmer’s, we pride ourselves on creating magical experiences for families with children aged 0-8. For the past 26 years, our family-run farm has been the ultimate destination for little ones to explore, learn, and have fun in a safe, welcoming environment. With a strong family ethos, we are committed to providing exceptional service, cleanliness, and accessibility—values deeply embedded in everything we do.
A Farm Park Built Around You
We’ve designed our entire farm with young children in mind. From interactive animal encounters to our revamped splash zone play area, everything at Farmer Palmer’s is tailored to create special moments for families. Whether you’re a local or visiting from far away (we’ve even had visitors from Chicago!), our goal is to offer a fun-filled, memorable day out that exceeds your expectations. It’s no wonder we see families returning year after year.
More Than Just a Day Out
We’re more than just a family attraction; we’re a second home to many. Our annual pass holders often visit over 40 times a year, and we love welcoming back familiar faces. We’re all about creating bonds—both between families and our farm—and offering an enriching environment where children can grow, play, and learn. With so many varied activities, there’s always something new to explore!
Customer Service: Our Top Priority
At Farmer Palmer’s, the customer experience is at the heart of everything we do. Sandra Palmer-Snellin & Phillip Palmer (brother and sister team) lead our team with a “nothing is too much trouble” attitude, ensuring that every visitor feels welcome and cared for. We believe in open communication and personally respond to every review—whether it’s on TripAdvisor or through direct feedback.
From providing accessibility for all to constantly reinvesting in our facilities, we listen to your feedback and use it to make improvements. That’s why we’ve introduced new IT tools, like Harri Software, to streamline recruitment and ensure that our team reflects our values of friendliness and excellence.
A Team That Cares
Our 59-strong team is passionate about making your visit unforgettable. Whether it’s by ensuring the park is spotless or offering a helping hand, we go above and beyond to make sure your experience is smooth and enjoyable. We invest heavily in training, so our team is always ready to offer exceptional service with a smile.
Sustainability & Innovation
We are also committed to sustainability, having reached the highest level 5 in Dorset Council’s Sustainability Award. From biomass energy to rainwater harvesting, ethical and responsible practices are central to our operations. Our condiment cow even means no more plastic sachets!
The Future Is Bright at Farmer Palmer’s
As we look to the future, we’re constantly evolving. From planning new indoor play areas to creating educational videos, we’re always thinking of new ways to make your visits even more exciting.
Whether you’re visiting us for the first time or the 60th, we can’t wait to welcome you to the farm where everything we do, we do for you.
