Farmer Smurf is a character from the original comics and cartoon show. His Wiki page is located here. He also exists in The Smurfs: Light and Dark. To see a full list of episodes in which he appears, please CLICK HERE.
Background Information
At an early age, he began tending his own plot of land and came to realize that he was made to be a farmer. He is responsible for growing and harvesting much of the food that the Smurfs eat on a daily basis, which he passes along to Greedy to be prepared into meals or preserved for the Smurf Village Storehouse. He usually works alone, but he is happy to accept assistance should any Smurf offer with the only exception being Brainy -- unless he needs someone to talk to his plants, that is.
Relationship with Gourdy
Farmer first met his personal genie in "Farmer's Genie" in Season 6 of the cartoon show. He found a strange gourd in his melon patch one day, which wound up housing a little genie named Gourdy who was eager to grant his every wish. While Gourdy often frustrates his master, Farmer knows he means well and only wants to please him, so rather than turn the genie away like he did once before, he has learned to be patient and forgiving with Gourdy.
Role in the Series
Farmer decides to lend his little genie unto other Smurfs on an at-will basis, giving some (arguably) lucky Smurf a chance to have their wishes granted for one day in the hopes that Gourdy will eventually learn to control his magic. At sunset, he returns to Farmer and shares his experience with whichever Smurf he accompanied. This allows Farmer to determine whether he should consider giving that Smurf another "Genie Day" in the future.
Relationship with Moxette Smurfette
When Moxette was first introduced to the village, he was harvesting his crops and did not officially meet her until after she had become a real Smurf by the True Blue Spell.
- Season 1 -- They get along well, but they are not close friends. He admits that she is "as beautiful as a begonia in a berry bush" and finds her impersonations to be a refreshing take on every Smurf's behaviors. He is generally willing to lend her a tool or two for her "farm girl" spiel.

Appearance
Farmer is usually dressed in the generic white Smurf hat and trousers, but he can be identified by having one of his farm tools on hand (most often a hoe or shovel). Without one of his tools, he finds a sprig of barley to put in his hat or have hanging from his mouth.
Voice Actor(s)
In the cartoon show, he was voiced by Alan Young in a Maine accent. A latter has yet to be chosen.
Trivia
- His constant expression in the original French comics is "cre vingt schtroumpfs," which means "sacred twenty smurfs" (a play on "cre vingt dieux," or "sacred twenty gods").
- Farmer Smurf is identified as Schtroumpf Jardinier in a Schtroumpferies one-page comic gag. In the Dutch translation he is misidentified as Natuursmurf, which is Natural Smurf's Dutch name.
- He is right-handed like most other Smurfs.
