On August 27, 1997, U.S. Secretary of Transportation Rodney E. Slater dedicated a roadside native wildflower garden in honor of Mrs. Lyndon Johnson. The garden is located at the Church Park rest area on U.S. Route 290 near Stonewall, Texas. During her husband's administration from 1963 to 1969, Mrs. Johnson promoted efforts to protect the environment, including the Highway Beautification Act of 1965. This garden will be a model for other interpretative gardens throughout the nation as each state shows off its native wildflowers. |
