Art @ Tender Tips

Jill Brandon works in an asparagus pack house during asparagus season and loves travelling around NZ and Australia doing seasonal work with her husband. They’re both retired now, which means she has more time for her art. And in an unprecedented conjunction of these two aspects of her life, she recently had an exhibition in the asparagus pack house. This was the brainchild of owner Geoff Lewis - who was so pleased with how the opening came off, he’s planning to make it a yearly event. Amelia Nurse visited the Foxton area pack house to soak up the creative atmosphere and talk to Jill about the exhibition. Asparagus sandwiches anyone?
