The Sauer-Beckmann Living History Farm, part of the Lyndon B. Johnson State Park and Historic Site, will provide an opportunity during the Easter weekend to learn how the German-Texans of the Hill Country celebrated Easter in the past.

From 10 a.m.-3 p.m. on Saturday, April 20, staff and volunteers will share the sights and smells of a traditional Easter celebration at the Sauer-Beckmann Living History Farm.

“Whether it’s the Easter lamb cake or the fresh Easter basket, the signs of the season are here,” a park spokesman said.

Though there is no Easter egg hunt, visitors can learn how to decorate eggs with natural dyes. Guests of all ages can also participate in the tradition of making and sharing friendship cards.

The visitor’s center and park facilities are open from 8:30 a.m.-4 p.m., with trails remaining open until 10 p.m.

The Sauer-Beckmann Farm is open to the public from 10 a.m.-4 p.m.

“Spring flowers, roving deer, secluded picnic areas and bison provide a natural backdrop for a full-day family outing,” the spokesman said.

Visitors are encouraged to pack a picnic lunch, bring the family and camera, and explore the natural and cultural resources of central Texas.

Visitors must check in at the visitor complex first to get all the park daily event details, map and free day park permit.
