Buffalo, TX — Leon County
Buffalo TX Land Clearing for Cattle Country That Means Business
Buffalo grew up where US-79 crosses I-45, and it has stayed a cattle town through and through. The sale barn traffic, the trailers lined up on sale day, the feed stores. This is a place where land is still expected to earn its keep. Houston County Mulching makes the run from Crockett in right at an hour, and we have hauled our machines up that way enough times that the trip is routine for us.
A lot of the country around Buffalo has been cut into ranchettes over the last twenty years, ten and twenty and forty acre tracts sold to folks who want their own piece of Texas. Some of those tracts were sold rough, and rough is what we fix. Call us, we will drive up, walk it with you, and hand you a free estimate with no runaround.
Work we do around Buffalo
The land around Buffalo is open post oak country, sandier than the bottomland east of the Trinity and a good deal more forgiving to work. But open does not mean clean. Where pastures have gone unmanaged you get the usual Leon County suspects: yaupon coming up in walls, eastern red cedar dotting itself across the grass, mesquite creeping in from the west, and briar tangles along every old fence. A tract that ran forty cows in the nineties might struggle to feed fifteen today just because brush ate the grazing.
Pasture reclamation is the bread and butter of what we do near Buffalo. We mulch the invasive brush back to dirt, and because the chips stay on the ground, that thin sandy topsoil keeps its moisture and its organic matter instead of blowing off a scraped surface. For the ranchette crowd, we clear building sites, punch in driveways off the county roads, and open up enough pasture to run a few head or cut hay. For the working ranches, it is fence lines, and lots of them. A clean fence row around Buffalo is worth real money in saved wire and saved time hunting shorts in an electric fence.
Water is the other half of the conversation up here. Stock tanks are how cattle country drinks, and half the old ponds around Buffalo were dug decades ago and have been silting in ever since. We repair dams, clean out silted tanks, and dig new ponds sited where the runoff actually flows, not just where the old-timers guessed.

Depends on what is standing on it. Light yaupon and scattered cedar on open ground, we can move through several acres a day. Heavy walls of brush with eight-inch cedars mixed in slows the pace down. When we come look at your place near Buffalo, we will tell you honestly whether it is a two-day job or a two-week job before any machine comes off the trailer. That is what the free estimate is for, and the number we give you is the number.
