According to Apple, this feature is only available on the iPhone 4 and 4S: support.apple.com­/kb­/HT4959­?viewlocale­=en­_US

If you have an iPhone 4 or 4S, here's how you set a Geofence/location reminder:
1: Open reminders app
2: Make a new reminder
3: Press done
4: Tap on that reminder
5: Press "Remind Me"
6: Change "At a Location" to "On"
7: Choose the location
8: Tap done

I just fired up my old 3GS and it seems like the geofence feature is missing from Reminders (I assume that's where you were hoping to use Geofence). it doesn't make much sense why this is the case since the 3GS has GPS built in just like the 4 and the 4S but maybe it had to do with battery life.
