If you are in Gozo next weekend, why not buzz along to the Villa Rundle Gardens in Victoria, where the Honey & Bee Fest will be providing an opportunity for everyone to show their support for Gozo’s beekeepers.

Visitors to the festival will be able to find honey inspired goods, local craft, interactive art and crafts station, educational stalls, beekeeping classes, information on agriculture in general, food vendors and the promise of plenty of fun for all.

The European Food Safety Authority has said that “it is a well-known fact that the bee population, especially in Europe, is declining at an alarming rate.”

Bees are vital for a resilient, thriving natural environment and for stable, healthy food supplies including the varied, colourful and nutritious diets.

So please visit the Villa Rundle for this free event on Saturday and Sunday, the 25th and 26th of May, between 10am and 6pm, and give your support to local beekeepers, their bees, genuine Gozitan honey and local artisans.
