Craving a nature outing on the doorstep of Paris? Head to the Cueillette de Cergy, in Puiseux-Pontoise in the Val-d'Oise (95), to pick your own fruits, vegetables and flowers as the seasons change, in a simple and familial atmosphere. A brilliant idea for a gourmet stroll to reconnect with the produce, the field and the pleasure of a well-filled basket.
Founded by the Thomassin family, the Cueillette de Cergy welcomes visitors to a vast domain of market gardening, horticulture and arboriculture spanning 40 hectares cultivated under the principles of sustainable farming. Here, you come with your boots, your tote, and your curiosity, as if the market had decided to grow right before your eyes.
From spring to autumn, the u-pick offers more than 130 varieties of seasonal fruits and vegetables, according to the harvest calendar: strawberries, raspberries, currants, blackcurrants, apples, plums, tomatoes, zucchini, eggplants, potatoes, or even beans. Fans of bouquets can also compose their own bunches of tulips, dahlias, gladioli, roses, or wildflowers, depending on the season.
Kids discover where their food comes from, adults take the time to choose their products, and everyone leaves with a little gardener’s pride. At the entrance, the Caroline Market completes the visit with local products, cheeses, artisanal charcuteries, farm poultry, and specialties from the Vexin.
Note that the Cueillette de Cergy’s shop is open year-round, while the pick-your-own runs from mid-May to mid-November. An accessible, family-friendly and delicious outing, perfect for getting some fresh air without really leaving Île-de-France!
