In most locations it's not legal to keep wild animals as pets; you would need to check with your state (or country) wildlife department to know what the rules are in your area.
Most kangaroos are wild. Kangaroos that are kept in wildlife sanctuaries which are open to the public tend to be used to people. In these places, the gentler kangaroos are kept in huge, fenced paddocks where visitors can roam and feed the kangaroos on grain they purchase from the sanctuary shop. These kangaroos will graze contendedly despite the presence of humans, or come up to people, nuzzling them for food. In one or two states of Australia, kangaroos are permitted to be kept as pets, but not in suburban areas.
Platypuses may not be kept as pets anywhere, and that includes their native country of Australia.

There is no such thing as a true or legal kangaroo farm. Kangaroos are not farmed for any purpose. The meat, fur and leather obtained from kangaroos is harvested from wild kangaroos, not from any animals in captivity anywhere in the world. Animal sanctuaries and zoos are permitted to have kangaroos. Other than that, kangaroos are not permitted to be kept as pets in Australia or anywhere in the world. Kangaroos and wallabies are protected by Australian law, and they should not be purchased by people overseas to satisfy a whim for an exotic pet. Within Australia, they may only be kept by a registered wildlife carer who has a licence. The Australian government has only permitted the export of kangaroos and wallabies overseas for non-commercial purposes. This means that smaller, private zoos have been permitted to have them. Unfortunately, this has resulted in numerous kangaroos and wallabies escaping from their enclosures (due to mismananagement and lack of understanding of the animals' needs), causing the development of feral populations overseas. Despite permitting the export of these animals, this still does not mean that kangaroos or wallabies may be kept as pets. Anyone who sells kangaroos or wallabies overseas is, in effect, flouting Australian law by exploiting them for commercial purposes.
