News release

The Town of Milton is committed to environmental stewardship year-round, with community cleanups taking place around Earth Day. We encourage Milton residents to participate in these cleanups - rain or shine - to celebrate Earth Day, support a healthier environment, and help keep our outdoor spaces clean and safe for everyone.

In honour of Earth Day, the Town of Milton will plant hundreds of trees and shrubs this spring and fall in partnership with Sustainable Milton and Conservation Halton. This is in addition to the many trees being planted in local parks and along streetscapes.
