The Foundation is delighted to share that we have been invited to take part in this year’s Festa Qargħasel 2025, which will be held on Saturday, 13th September 2025, at the iconic Pjazza Rotunda in Mosta. This event is being organised by the Mosta Local Council, and we are honoured to be included in its celebrations! The Foundation will be delivering a short talk on the Maltese Honey Bee. And not only, we will be manning a stand as well! Come by our stand and:

  • Get your Katrina’s Spring Honey, the Foundation’s lapel pin and postcards!
  • Find out more about the Course in Beekeeping and Conservation of the Maltese Honey Bee taking place this autumn!
  • Learn more about the Foundation’s Action Plan for the Conservation of the National Insect.
  • For children, will have colouring sheets featuring Katerina and her friends the other National Species, along with Katerina stickers to take home.

We invite everyone to come by our stand and say hello! We look forward to meeting you all at Pjazza Rotunda for Festa Qargħasel 2025!

The Foundation extends its heartfelt thanks to the Mosta Local Council for this kind invitation.
