Serenity Garden & Labyrinth
The Eastern Shore Hospital Center in Cambridge celebrated their 100th anniversary June 10, 2015. The ceremony included the dedication of a Patient Serenity Garden & Labyrinth. The Dorchester County Master Gardeners played a big role in getting this project off the ground. The garden was designed by Master Gardener Diane Miller.
