Farmer Glacier is a glacier at the southern end of the Surveyors Range in Antarctica, flowing northwest into Starshot Glacier between Mount McKerrow to the north and Thompson Mountain to the south. It was named in honor of D. W. Farmer, a technician on the geomagnetic project who served on the 1960 Cape Hallett winter-over team.
