As spring approaches, we can’t wait to get out into nature! Luckily, about 45 minutes from Paris, within easy reach of the Navigo pass, is the Ferme de Gally. A delightful place where you’ll find a recycling center and, above all, a huge field where fruit, vegetables, and flowers grow. Come in April to pick tulips at a great price.

Located 45 minutes from Paris, this magnificent farm allows you to pick a multitude of seasonal flowers starting in April. Here , you don’t just look: you choose your stems and create your own custom bouquet. In April, a bed of tulips colors the grounds with a multitude of shades. The calendar changes every month: irises, peonies… You’ll be spoiled for choice!

Admission is free, and picking flowers is very inexpensive: expect to pay between 50 cents and one euro per stem, depending on the variety! Depending on the month, you can vary your floral arrangement with the seasonal flowers available in the fields. These extra-fresh flowers will last a very long time. In fact, fruit and vegetables also reign supreme here! During the summer, you can pick juicy strawberries and apples, as well as lettuce and other vegetables. Wheelbarrows are available for free, and secateurs can be borrowed for the day for a five-euro deposit.

Finally, after all that hard work, we recommend a visit to the farm shop, where you’ll find a garden center, a decoration area, and two restaurants (a café and a crêperie)! A well-deserved break, where every product from the field is transformed into a delicious meal.
