Private land isnt hard to buy here, like anything your only real restriction is $$$. You could quite easily buy a plot of land and grow vege/keep animals for quite an affordable sum as long as its far from any of the main centers. Shit you dont even have to live in NZ or be a resident to buy land privately here which is frankly a bit fucked but ill keep politics to a minimum.
