Faldor's farm

Faldor's Farm is a fictional location in The Belgariad and The Malloreon book series written by David Eddings.

Faldor's Farm is located in the earldom of Erat in the country of Sendaria. It is notable for being the childhood home of Garion. Polgara fled here with Garion after Chamdar destroyed Garion's family by setting fire to their house, killing his parents, and sending Polgara off on a fool's errand ( Chamdar had killed his grandfather some months earlier). The farm is relatively prosperous, employing a goodly number of farmhands, while keeping them and their families well-cared-for.
Durnik, later Beldurnik and Polgara first meet here, where Durnik was the blacksmith and Polgara, the cook. As the embodiment of Prophecy observes in the Seeress of Kell, thinking of the farm seems to calm Belgarion. Polgara once wonders if Faldor knew that his cook was receiving the rent his family paid. One notable event there is when Garion nearly drowns. The Grolim Chamdar often visited Garion there. Zubrette, Doroon and Rundorig where Garions childhood friends, who also lived at the farm. Zubrette and Rundorig later got married and had several children.The owner, Faldor, is your typical Sendar, who is not very good at math (his columns never add up). Just a little way from the farm is where he met Silk and Barak, who later become his closest friends.
