Member Spotlight: Southern Palmetto Farms
“Celebrating a Family Farm That Harvests Memories Year-Round”
The Aynor Area Chamber of Commerce is proud to shine a bright spotlight on one of our most dynamic and delightfully fun local gems — Southern Palmetto Farms.
Meet the Family Behind the Fields
At Southern Palmetto Farms, you’re not just visiting a farm — you’re stepping into a living family legacy. Owners Heath and Stephanie Squires carry on a four-generation tradition of farming, and their daughters, Emily and Lainey, are already pros at helping run the show. It’s truly a family affair where the “take your kids to work” concept has been perfected.
What Makes This Farm a Memory Machine
Their mission is simple and heartfelt: harvest memories that last a lifetime. And with more than 40 acres of fun — from corn mazes and cotton-picker slides to pig races, wagon rides, barrel trains, and even adult trike racing — they absolutely deliver. Whether you’re planning a birthday, a field trip, or a full day of running wild in the sunshine, Southern Palmetto Farms is the place where unforgettable stories begin.
Seasons of Fun
Fall steals the show with pumpkin patches, hayrides, haunted trails, and entertainment.
