About Us
Symara Organic Farm is a small family farm growing a large and constantly changing selection of vegetables, herbs and fruit. The farm is owned and operated by Ray and Samantha Palmer, a young couple who are passionate about growing good food and their two young apprentices Eva and Charlie.
Our produce is available direct to the public via:

The farm is located just north of Stanthorpe in the heart of Queensland's Granite Belt, an area renowned for producing good food and wine.
Our vegetables are also found in produce boxes from foodconnect, Australia's largest Community Supported Agriculture project. For more information about what Community Supported Agriculture is about, click here.
