Celebrate the Easter holiday at Mormon Station while sampling cast iron fare at a Dutch oven cooking demonstration at 1 p.m. on Easter, Sunday, March 27.
Park rangers will prepare ham with sides to share with visitors, and discuss how pioneers used the same cast iron cooking techniques in the 1850s. This event is free and all ages are welcome.
