Homeschool Class: Native Plants

Experience Lockhart State Park as an outdoor classroom in this program for school-age kids! Registration required.

Lockhart State Park’s homeschool program is a set of outdoor classes for homeschool kiddos grades 1-5. Classes are usually held on the first full week of the month (September through April), and you can choose between Tuesday at 10am, Wednesday at 10am, Wednesday at 2pm, or Thursday at 10am. We cover a different topic every month, so don’t miss out! 

October's topic is Native Plants! Take a hike to discover the native plants of Central Texas and their many benefits!

Registration: Program is limited to 25 participants, so registration is required. Registration is online only.
