Let's keep the tradition alive in the village of Saint Etienne de Tinée during the May planting with the Young Conscripts from 8 p.m.
The May tree is a huge spruce tree cut in the Pinatelle forest. It is installed in the cable car parking lot. It is peeled and carefully decorated. On the evening of April 30th, the eve of May 1st, it is transported to the village square.
With the help of the elders, it is erected using simple means, including ropes and props. The combined efforts make it possible to plant this tree. The Conscripts are young men who turn 19 during the year and who, once upon a time, would go to their Revision Council at the age of 20.
The planting of this symbolic tree is an opportunity to celebrate and share a good time with music and to taste the mulled wine served by the conscripts of the class of 2025.
