Truffles, Olives, and Chestnuts

Provence is a region celebrated for its culinary excellence, and it's no surprise that it hosts a variety of food festivals dedicated to its world-renowned ingredients. Among the standouts is Truffle & You in Grimaud each February, where truffle lovers can indulge in the region's most prized ingredient. In April, the Fête de l'Olive in Rayol-Canadel-sur-Mercelebrates Provence's olive harvest with a day of tasting and festivities. And in October, La Garde-Freinet plays host to the Fête de la Châtaigne, honoring the rich flavors of the chestnut. These festivals offer an authentic taste of Provence's exceptional ingredients and the vibrant culture that surrounds them.
