Aimee originally grew up in Auckland, then spent 8 years living in Hawkes Bay working in Wineries, Vineyards and on Apples orchards before completing her Diploma in Horticulture and moving to Nelson.

With a range of practical and theory experiences gained during her career, she is now focussing on her role as a horticultural consultant, being able to help and support Pipfruit growers in the Nelson/ Motueka region in any way. Her management experience of orchard staff and teams gives her an insight into the day to day running of an orchard business.

She is specifically interested in environmental changes and improvements, regulations and the ways we can structure businesses to reflect environmental goals, and the ways in which these environmental targets can positively impact our community.
