Excellence & Value for You

Bluegrass is an innovative leader in

environmental cultivation techniques.

Bluegrass Contracting Ltd. started as a small family business; Brook, John and Sally set it up in the late 1990’s with an innovative method to cultivate land for the forestry industry.

Bluegrass became involved in the agriculture industry in the early 2000s because of love of Cultivation and Lucerne.

We are now a major Agricultural Contracting company cultivating and harvesting a large amount of Maize, Grass, & Lucerne in the Waikato Region based out of Te Poi in the Matamata-Piako District. 

We are very proud of the fact that we are the preferred contractor for many of the large and very high producers in this area. Clients that require a guarantee of service and supply, that focus on quality and share our philosophy of excellence.

Bluegrass is about job enjoyment and satisfaction among our great team of staff. We instruct and teach good skills, techniques and safe operating practices.

Bluegrass is about the love of tractors, equipment and new technology.

Bluegrass is about the enjoyment and relationship we get from our clients.

Finally, for us it’s all about job and client satisfaction

Name discovery

The Name Bluegrass

The name Bluegrass was born for our business in 1997 because of our involvement with Blue Gum trees,

Johns attachment to Lucerne as a special crop, which has a blue tinge as the crop matures, and the world renown grass known as ‘blue grass’ in the state of Kentucky for its high-quality horse feed.

We believed one or all of these connections would create a significant image for our company.
