The chestnut tree is a very important tree in the Cévennes since it was once considered a breadfruit tree. The chestnut then replaced the cereals present on the plains and plateaus. Today the chestnut still has its place on our plates. It can also be used as a side dish, in soups and/or in desserts.

Some local species:
- Pellegrine and Marron Dauphine are mainly used for jam and fresh chestnuts in jars.
- The very sweet Figarette is very interesting for processing.
- La Bouche Rouge also has a very sweet taste appreciated for making chestnut cream.
- Sardonne is mainly cooked as an accompaniment to fresh fruit.

The AOC (Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée) Châtaignes des Cévennes was obtained on September 21, 2020. In all, 25 varieties were selected to benefit from this denomination.
