    Blackberry, gorse and scrub cleared properly across Daylesford, Hepburn and the Central Highlands.

    Daylesford and the Hepburn Shire sit in cool wet country that grows blackberry, gorse and thick regrowth faster than most of Victoria. Spring country, mineral springs, creeks and gullies everywhere, all of it perfect for weeds to take hold and hard to get on top of without the right gear. Ironbark Vegetation Management works this country with a drum mulcher and disc cutter, mechanical clearing that actually resets the property, followed by a spray plan for the regrowth. Land clearing, forestry mulching, slashing and fence lines across every lifestyle property, hobby farm and rural property in the shire.

    • 01Hepburn Shire enforces weed control obligations under the Catchment and Land Protection Act 1994. Blackberry and gorse are Weeds of National Significance and landowners have a legal responsibility to control them.
    • 02Daylesford, Hepburn Springs, Musk, Bullarto, Glenlyon and Trentham all sit in high rainfall country. Once scrub goes in, it goes in thick and fast, mechanical clearing is usually the only realistic reset.
    • 03Lifestyle properties and B&B properties around Daylesford expect a clean finish. Careful machine work, no scarred ground, no chewed fencing, no gates left open.
    • 04Steep and stepped country is common through the shire. We use the right head for the right slope and walk every property before starting.

    Common Questions

    Daylesford, asked and answered.

    Do I have to control blackberry on my Daylesford property?

    Yes. Blackberry is a Weed of National Significance and landowners in Hepburn Shire are required under the Catchment and Land Protection Act 1994 to take reasonable steps to control it. Mechanical clearing plus a targeted spray follow-up is the standard approach.

    Can you work on a steep property?

    Yes, within reason. We assess slope on the site walk and match the head to the country. If it is too steep to be safe, we will tell you honestly rather than take the job.

    Daylesford, Hepburn Springs, Musk, Bullarto, Glenlyon, Trentham, Clunes, Creswick and out through the shire.
