Uniting the Farm Attraction Industry, the National Farm Attraction Network (NFAN) has over 200 Farm Members and is the only independent co-operative for farm and rural attractions.

NFAN now helps Members interpret the guidelines with workshops and one-on-one Member discussions. NFAN has also produced a helpful video demonstrating best practice.
