With the warm weather back in full force, it’s becoming more and more tempting to stay outside, don’t you think? So, to make the most of it, we recommend a visit to Gally Farm. Flower lovers will be delighted, as they can pick seasonal flowers from 60 hectares at very reasonable prices: peonies, carnations, irises… A dream within the reach of your Navigo Pass!
Flowers as far as the eye can see at the gateway to Paris
La ferme de Gally is a magical place just outside Paris, exactly 45 minutes away. Here, over 60 hectares, you’ll discover a multitude of seasonal flowers that elegantly adorn the grounds with their shimmering colors. If, in April, it was the tulips that delighted our eyes with their pastel colors, the flower calendar changes every month. This time around, we’re rushing to admire the delicate irises, smell the bewitching scent of the peonies or detail the serrated petals of the carnations. And it’s not just the flowers you can admire here! You can also pick them .
And the prices for picking are very, very low: between 50 centimes and one euro per stem, depending on the variety! And there are often very special offers, for example 50 tulips for 25 euros… And of course, you can vary your floral arrangements with the seasonal flowers in the fields: enough to make some very beautiful bouquets! What’s more, fruit and vegetables are also king here! Right now, you can pick juicy strawberries and apples, as well as lettuce, spinach and chard. Wheelbarrows are self-service, and secateurs are available for the day for a deposit of five euros.
Ferme Gally is also a restaurant and a recycling center.
After a “sporty” harvest, it’s time to relax. La ferme de Gally has a pretty ressourcerie where you’ll find second-hand decorative objects, as well as a few bargains here and there. If you’re into houseplants, you’ll find a wide selection to satisfy your heart at the nursery. Finally, if you’re feeling peckish, we can’t recommend lunch at one of our two restaurants. Unsurprisingly, they use locally-grown fruit and vegetables to concoct fresh, seasonal dishes.
In short, whether you’re a nature lover or just want to get away from it all for a weekend, there are a thousand reasons to come to Gally Farm.
