Hahndorf Farm Barn: Bringing Swedish Innovation to the Adelaide Hills

“The mini diggers and tractors from SBI Sweden brought a whole new level of fun and engagement to our park. Not just for kids, but for the whole family. The quality is outstanding, and even years later, they still run like new. Working with SBI was easy, professional, and supportive from start to finish.”

– Michael Farmer at Hahndorf Farm Barn.

More Than Just a Petting Zoo

Nestled in the picturesque Adelaide Hills of South Australia, Hahndorf Farm Barn has long been a family favourite, combining the charm of a traditional farm with interactive experiences for children. And in 2021, the team at Hahndorf decided to take their attraction to the next level together with SBI Sweden.

Hahndorf Farm Barn is more than just a petting zoo. It’s a hands-on, educational experience where children can feed baby animals, milk cows, and even hold reptiles. Blending the charm of a traditional farm with the fun of a wildlife park, the Farm Barn offers daily shows, birthday parties, and school excursions, all designed to connect the visitors with animals in an interactive and memorable way. This mix of education, entertainment, and close-up animal encounters sets it apart from more conventional farm parks.

A Farm Visit Like No Other

In 2021, SBI Sweden shipped four mini diggers and six mini tractors to Hahndorf. By March 2022, the farm proudly launched its new attraction zone, combining the charm of rural life with interactive play that engages young visitors and their families.

The diggers, safely enclosed within a wooden-fenced sandpit, allow children to experience the joy of operating their own machinery. Scooping, digging, and learning through play. Right next door, the gravel track becomes a mini adventure course as kids ride SBI’s mini tractors. From day one, the interactive vehicles proved to be a massive success. Not just with the kids, but with adults too. Parents, grandparents, and older siblings couldn’t resist giving the mini diggers a try, turning it into a fun and memorable experience for the whole family.

Built to Last and Still Going Strong

Now, several years later in 2025, the mini diggers remain one of the most popular attractions at Hahndorf Farm Barn. Their durability and ease of maintenance have made them a reliable part of the park’s offering. Beyond entertainment, these attractions add value to the customer experience, creating new reasons for families to return. And new opportunities for revenue growth.

SBI Sweden’s vehicles are engineered and manufactured in Sweden with safety, longevity, and user experience in mind. For Hahndorf Farm Barn, this meant a worry-free investment that continues to pay off. Both in guest satisfaction and in repeat visits.
