Useful information
Typical vegetables from the Audomarois marsh...
Inaugurated in July 2021, the Maison du Marais conservatory vegetable garden is part of a desire to safeguard the vernacular heritage of market gardening culture in the Saint-Omer region.
Presenting around twenty varieties of vegetables evolving with the seasons, the vegetable garden is a stone's throw from the Maison du Marais.
Valued in a short circuit...
The conservatory vegetable garden is also a good way to emphasize the short circuit. Indeed, most of the vegetables grown here by the Farmers' training center are then either sent to the vegetable market (a few kilometers from the Maison du Marais) or consumed at Bols du Marais.

Sheep in the Park?
During your walk in the park, you may come across... Asterix and Obelix! You are not dreaming, they are indeed sheep... taking care of the grass! In a zero-phyto approach, they are the ones who ensure the maintenance of this vast natural area.
The Aile mill
In the heart of the park, this wooden giant is the vestige and witness to the domestication of the marsh by the inhabitants. Thanks to his Archimedes screw, take stock of the land draining techniques in the 19th century. Installed in the Maison du Marais park on the occasion of its inauguration in 2014, this mill was an essential tool for market gardeners.
Take advantage of the surrounding green spaces to picnic with family or friends on sunny days.
The hanging garden
A place of relaxation
It is a true haven of peace just a few steps from the town center of Saint Omer. The hanging garden of the Maison du Marais is the ideal place to get a change of scenery for a few moments or a few hours. Among the aromatic herbs, enjoy a moment of relaxation and calm.
