Meet the Amazing Team Behind Standalone Farm – Where Fun, Family and Farming Come Together
At the heart of Standalone Farm, a much-loved family destination nestled in the countryside, is a passionate and hardworking team dedicated to creating unforgettable experiences for every visitor. Their tireless efforts and genuine love for what they do are what truly set the farm apart—and the recognition they’ve recently received is a testament to just how special this place is.
In 2025, Standalone Farm was proudly voted the Best Family Day Out by Mums Guide to Letchworth & Hitchin, a title that reflects the warmth, joy, and care the team brings to the farm every single day. From welcoming families with friendly smiles to ensuring every corner of the farm is fun, safe, and educational, the staff go above and beyond to make memories that last a lifetime.
The team at Standalone Farm is a diverse group—animal keepers, educators, gardeners, maintenance staff, and front-of-house crew—all united by a shared mission: to offer families a hands-on experience with nature and animals in a setting that’s as safe as it is exciting. Whether it’s leading interactive animal feeding sessions, maintaining beautiful play areas, or helping children learn through farm-themed activities, every team member plays a vital role.
Their dedication doesn’t stop at customer experience. Standalone Farm is also proud to have received the Animal Attraction Assurance Scheme Award, recognising excellence in animal welfare and public safety. This prestigious certification ensures that the farm meets the Five Freedoms standard for animal welfare:
-
Freedom from hunger and thirst – Animals have constant access to clean water and a nutritious diet.
-
Freedom from discomfort – They enjoy safe, clean environments with proper shelter and rest areas.
-
Freedom from pain, injury, or disease – The team is vigilant, with swift care provided when needed.
-
Freedom to express normal behaviour – Animals live in enriching spaces with room to roam and socialize.
-
Freedom from fear and distress – Gentle handling and calm surroundings help animals feel secure.
This award is not just a badge of honour; it’s a reflection of the values that drive the Standalone team every day. The care they give to both animals and guests ensures the farm is a place where learning is natural, laughter is plenty, and every visit feels like a breath of fresh countryside air.
So next time you visit Standalone Farm, know that behind the scenes is a team working their socks off to make sure your family day out is not just fun—but truly unforgettable.
