This month we're launching our “Malta Farm Map”, which aims to support local farmers sell their local fruits and vegetables by connecting farmers and customers directly in this time of crisis.
Farmers put a lot of work and passion into growing food, and we want citizens to get a glimpse of that. Right now people want to support local farmers but are finding it hard to purchase from them. Customers can now locate their nearest friendly farmer and buy their fresh local produce directly. In that way they will be promoting the local farming community which had already been struggling even before the current crisis.

We live on a planet facing an emergency with nature disappearing at an unprecedented rate. Together with over a 100 organisations from around the EU, we are launching this initiative to show that the public supports decision-makers to take much bolder steps to transform our agriculture, save nature and support sustainable farmers that protect our countryside and provide us with fresh food daily.

Bees can live without us, but we can’t live without them. Some people might think that bees are annoying as they see them buzz around, crawl inside drinks or annoy people. Yet, the simple fact is, if bees didn’t exist, neither would humans.
