The Reindeer Farm sits at the feet of Bodenburg Butte just 10 minutes out of downtown Palmer. The farm site was originally part of the Matauska Colony Project, operating as a dairy farm, but would move to reindeer and various other animals in the 1980s. Being the only stop in the valley to offer tours of a maintained herd of 100-300 reindeer, 2 elk, a bison, and a moose (including petting and feeding), as well as horseback tours, it is an incredible experience for the whole family.
Sunderland Ranch, located just outside of Palmer, offers a variety of options for your Palmer trip. With a B&B, horseback riding, and even Day Camps for children to learn ranch-related skills, you're sure to have a blast.
