Maria Ausiliatrice Patronal Feast (Cornaley)

The 2025 edition of the Maria Ausiliatrice Patronal Feast confirmed the vitality of a tradition deeply rooted in the village of Cornaley, in Settimo Vittone, in the upper Canavese. Centered around the devotion to the Madonna Ausiliatrice, with the solemn mass and procession, the event wove together the rituals of village conviviality: community lunches and dinners, traditional games, and evenings animated by local music. A key protagonist in this edition was also the Suet Gris, the ancient wild herb polenta of peasant cuisine, which would become the first De.C.O. recipe of the municipality the following year. The festival represented an important moment of gathering for the small community of the village and for the many visitors arriving from the Canavese area.
