Burgess Green Briar Nature Center. Visit the gardens at your leisure anytime between 10am and 4pm. Gardeners showcase the multiple sides of gardening design and cultivation in their home gardens. Each garden on the tour offers something a little different. Three of the gardens are located in the Sandwich Village area; two gardens are nearby in East Sandwich; and one garden is on Cotuit Road in South Sandwich. Tickets and a map with directions to each garden are available at the Green Briar Nature Center, 6 Discovery Hill Road (off Route 6A), East Sandwich. A ticket covering all six gardens may be purchased for $30, or individual gardens may be visited for a fee of $5 (exact cash to be paid at each garden). Purchase your ticket in advance or on the day of the tour. For further information, call 508-888-6870. The Green Briar Garden Tour is partnering with the Cape Cod Hydrangea Festival, a 10 day event which includes towns throughout the Cape.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center;line-height:150%;text-autospace:none'><span style='font-family:ArialMT'>-#-<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal>Joan DiPersio<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Public Relations Coordinator<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Thornton W.
