Professional Land Clearing in Castroville
Castroville — the 'Little Alsace of Texas' — sits along the Medina River in eastern Medina County, where historic architecture, mature oaks, and rolling ranchland create a unique Hill Country setting. Legacy Oak Land Clearing provides forestry mulching, cedar removal, and selective brush clearing throughout Castroville and the surrounding area.
Most Castroville work is selective clearing — removing native Ashe juniper from the understory, opening up Hill Country views, and creating defensible space without touching the heritage oaks that define the landscape. Our equipment has the agility to work between mature trees while retaining chosen trees.
We also handle ranch-scale clearing on the larger acreage west of town, where cedar reclamation and pasture restoration are the primary goals. Because we mulch in place, there are no slash piles to burn or haul off.
Every quote starts with your project details and a few photos, and an owner walks the property before any contract is signed. You can choose a project price or our day rate, and the price is agreed before work starts.

Castroville Land Clearing FAQs
Do you bring your own equipment to Castroville?
Yes. We arrive with our own high-flow track loaders, mulching heads, and rock grinding head on a trailer. You don't need to provide power, water, or any equipment.
Will forestry mulching damage my soil or existing oaks in Castroville?
No. Forestry mulching leaves a mulch layer that protects the rocky Medina County soil, holds moisture, and slows regrowth. We work around mature oaks and any trees you point out before we start.
