A fresh and local getaway

It’s simple: you hop in your car, head towards Seclin, grab a wheelbarrow at the entrance… and the rest happens in the middle of the fields. La Ferme du Paradis is a little piece of countryside at the gates of Lille where you can pick over 100 varieties of fruits, vegetables, and flowers yourself. Right now? Strawberries to nibble on!
Spring vegetables to harvest, the first colorful tulips to slip into a home bouquet.
This is the perfect outing idea to disconnect, enjoy nature, and shop in a different way. No need to have a green thumb: everything is indicated, from the crop plan to the equipment provided (wheelbarrows, knives, spades…). And even in case of rain, the farm lends ponchos and shoe covers. Just remember to wear good sneakers.
An anti-inflation pick-your-own experience (and super delicious)

Another great perk: here, the prices are fair… and they go down during the peak season! You pay for what you pick, by weight, based on the current harvests. It’s fresh, local, without unnecessary packaging, and it supports nearby agriculture. And here's a bonus: a little shop on-site offers yogurt, homemade soups, and jams.
Whether you're solo, a duo, or with your little one

Whether with family, friends, or just in the mood to escape the city, it’s a perfect opportunity to change the scenery without any hassle. Pick your own fruits is open even on Sundays, and there’s plenty to keep both young and old entertained for a few hours. From the joy of digging for potatoes to the thrill of picking the best strawberries, the hardest part will be resisting the urge to eat everything on the way back.
