Out and About - Farmer Palmers

For most of you it's half term and even if the sun's not shining today, at least the weather finally looks as though it's improving.  But, whatever the weather, Farmer Palmers Farm Park, Poole is an ideal family day out. You’ll get close to all sorts of farm animals, learn about them and have fun doing it. Plus, every day join in with the constantly changing, hands-on children’s farm Activities and Demonstrations.
To add to your adventure their Award Winning Farm Attraction has a real Farmer Palmer! There are lots of events and offers for the Autumn/Winter. Children can explore the play areas, whoosh down slides, pedal tractors, scramble through straw tunnels and much more! And there's even an indoor soft play area.

The farm has been in the family for three generations and, by diversifying and opening the Park (run by brother and sister Phillip and Sandra Palmer) they have ensured its survival.  They are proud to have won both national and local awards for their attraction and service because, as they say, 'we understand that family time is precious in this busy world.  Here at Farmer Palmer's we encourage children to explore, learn and gain confidence in the fresh air, in a relaxed, fun atmosphere.  It is so rewarding to see happy children's faces having fun during their family day out.'

You can watch cows being milked and have a go at feeding some of the animals yourself too.
As well as cows, they have pigs, ponies, alpacas, ducks, goats, lambs, deer and donkeys. They even have an owl called Alan.  

And for the grown ups, there's somewhere to relax with a delicious coffee in the warm Hen House Restaurant!  And if you don't fancy a spot of lunch, you can at least indulge in a slice of Dawn's cake! 
And because we can't resist a link, check out our hats and tops with great farm animals on them too.
