Farmer Palmer’s Farm Park in Poole has announced its May half term programme, featuring a week of activities from 25 May to 29 May 2026. The park, which is designed specifically for children aged eight and under, will host foam parties and splash-filled tractor rides to celebrate the school break.
Families can visit the park on Wareham Road in Organford to participate in the Wet the Western tractor rides, which run every morning during the week. The attraction provides water pistols and will even refill them for guests. Additionally, two open-air foam parties are planned for 3pm on Wednesday 27 May and Friday 29 May.
Admission for the half term period is £20 per person for adults and children aged three and over, while entry for children under two remains free. Visitors can purchase afternoon tickets, valid after 1pm, for £15 per person. The farm recommends that families pre-book tickets through their website, as doing so saves an average of £3 per ticket compared to paying for entry on the day.
The site, which has been operated by the Palmer family since 1998, houses over 325 animals and employs 55 staff members. It currently holds an NFAN Animal Attraction Assured certification, which was awarded in 2023 to verify its commitment to animal welfare standards. While the park continues to be a popular destination in the region, directors Phillip Palmer and Sandra Palmer-Snellin recently noted the loss of their red deer herd due to changes in government regulations, which brought an end to their former deer safari experience.
