27th edition: the Périgord walnut in the spotlight
On Sunday, October 26, 2025, the village of Thégra hosted the 27th edition of the Fête de la Noix. From 9 AM, the village streets came alive with the setup of exhibitors and the opening of the market. About sixty stands offered walnut-based products, regional specialties, and artisanal creations.
The walnut oil mill and the apple press operated all day long under the eyes of visitors.
