And finally it’s back! The picturesque parish square in the agricultural village of Imgarr, will once again host 'Festa Frawli' - the annual Strawberry Fair - Sunday 24th April. This event is now a much awaited fixture in the Maltese calendar.
A constant supply of freshly picked strawberries will be on sale throughout the day, ferried regularly to the square by the farmers themselves. A wide variety of desserts, snacks and beverages will be available in our open air kitchen, all made with fresh Imgarr strawberries. Professional chefs will also be preparing novelty strawberry based gourmet dishes. Home made strawberry wine, jams, conserves and other typical products will also be on sale. Souvenirs, artworks and crafts will be exhibited by the craftsmen themselves. A second open air kitchen will be offering other dishes.
DJ Pierre Cordina, dance troupes from all around Malta and Gozo, a variety of folk music performed by leading Maltese artists using traditional instruments, will provide fitting entertainment for this unique celebration of Maltese agricultural heritage.
