Taking on a new lifestyle block or expanding your farm? Here’s how to clear overgrown land and prep it properly for pasture, planting, or building.
From cutting back wild scrub and removing trees to grinding out stubborn roots and tilling compacted soil — we explain what it takes to reclaim rural land the right way. Learn when heavy-duty tilling is best used (great for regenerating paddocks, firebreak prep, or fencing runs) and why local experience matters on sloped or soft ground.
At MKM Trees, we’ve cleared and prepped land all over Canterbury — fast, tidy, and ready for the next stage.
