Fruit/ Vegetable of the Month…

Malta has a glut of watermelons in July and August. 

What isn’t sold at the pitkalija is turned to compost

5000 watermelons to date and counting

We run an awareness campaign with nutrient benefits and recipes on all social media to reduce waste of local produce…

It is time to make better food choices.

Better for health, better for nature, better for Malta and Gozo.
