  • Fiera di l’Amandulu 2026 in Aregno

    Fiera di l’Amandulu is scheduled in Aregno on 1 and 2 August 2026 and keeps the almond at the heart of a Balagne village celebration. Aregno is known for almond culture, and the fair turns that agricultural identity into a public weekend of products, encounters and local memory. The almond becomes a way to speak about orchards, dry landscapes, seasonal work and Corsican food traditions. For FranceRegional, the event is a strong terroir entry because it connects a precise crop with a named village and a living island fair tradition.

  • Fête de l’Amande à Oraison

    Oraison’s Fête de l’Amande gives a deserving place to a crop deeply rooted in Haute-Provence. Almonds speak of dry soils, orchards, confectionery, local recipes and agricultural know-how often overshadowed by lavender or olives. The festival brings that identity into the town centre through producers, tastings, craft, demonstrations and convivial gatherings across the main public spaces. The almond becomes a way to read the Durance valley and surrounding countryside through flavour and farming. Sweet or savoury, raw or transformed, it carries a local story of patience, climate and village pride. It is a small crop with a strong regional voice.
