How Ġbejniet are Made – Visit to a Sheep Farm

November 24, 2018 @ 09:45 - 12:15 CET

Free

The event is Fully Booked!

Join us for a visit to Pespus Farm, a sheep farm that is using traditional practices to make local cheese. We will be going on a tour around the farm and meeting the farming family to get to know more about the work that they do, the current market situation, challenges that traditional farmers face and how policies are affecting their work. We invite people from all walks of life and food diets to join for a visit and a healthy discussion around current farming practices. This activity is part of our project, ‘Citizen’s CAP’, aimed at making you more aware of the most important EU policies concerning food production.

We will meet at Castello Zammitello at 9:45 sharp and from there we will carpool to the farm. Agenda below.

  • Welcome and Registration (at 9:45 sharp since we need to carpool to the farm)
