Bicycle Network Helps Us Rescue 6000 Bananas!

By Director – Josh Ball ·  · 5 min read

Farmers Pick is teaming up with the iconic Melbourne “Around The Bay” event to save 6000 single Bananas from Supermarket Rejection.

In Melbourne, Alison McCormack, CEO of Bicycle Network is supporting Farmers Pick to supply 8000 free bananas to their riders taking part of the iconic Melbourne bike event, United Energy Around The Bay on Sunday October 8th.

“We have been running this event for more than 30 years and we absolutely love working with Farmers Pick,” says Ms McCormack. 

“Their passion for sustainability and promoting healthy eating really aligns with our bike members so it was a no-brainer to support their banana farmers during their time of need. 

“We are sure the kids and families on our rides around Albert Park Lake will demolish their share of bananas and riders on the 100km, 135km, Classic and 300km distances will need a bit of extra sustenance too. It’s an absolute WIN WIN!”
