A pedal-powered extravaganza of apple juicing and other activities
Saturday 19 October 12-4pm
Alexandra Park Food Forest
A family fun day of apple activities for all ages – FREE!
OFFICIAL LAUNCH OF
THE VELOJUICER
Do you like apple juice? Bring all the apples you can carry and turn them into juice with our brand new fantastic machine. Remember to bring a bottle to put the juice in!
Last year we had a trial run of the amazing Pedal Apple Chomperizer Mark I – it was an experimental prototype and we wanted to see how it would run. It was fantastic! But this year will be its official launch – along with a lightweight Apple Juice Press that is guaranteed to revolutionise apple days across the land. The whole Heath Robinson apparatus will be transportable by bicycle across the city and will be available soon at an orchard near you.
