NOTES:

Community Garden – When the volunteers or staff (Ryan or Donnie) pick vegetables, they will be available in coolers or at the veggie stand at the community garden, across Rte. 224 from the Milton Community Hall. (The wild weekend weather knocked over the veggie stand - but we hope to have it upright soon!). At times, when specific vegetables are plentiful, people can U-Pick, if the signs indicate, or you have received permission from municipal staff. Otherwise, please don’t pick from the garden. Ryan can be reached at 902-218-8219. Feel free to U-pick flowers from the communal area. Please be mindful of others who may also want garden produce. The Garden was planted for the use of Miltonvale Park residents, and can also be used by nearby residents in need. The half closer to the Rustico Road has been planted by individuals, for their own use, so please do not disturb or pick vegetables in that portion. 

Miltonvale Community Park – The park is no longer staffed. If you notice issues, please contact the Municipal Office at 902-368-3090, admin@miltonvalepark.com, or 902-213-0597.

Follow the Miltonvale Community Park on Facebook to keep up-to-date with park activities.

Reminder – There are books and puzzles to borrow in the lobby at the Milton Community Hall, and a Little Free Library at the park.

Coyote Sighting Alert at Miltonvale Community Park
Several coyotes and pups have been sighted in the grass field at the back of the garden and toward the water at the park at 413 Sleepy Hollow Road over the summer. 

Please be vigilant when walking by or around that area with your pets and children. If you see a coyote:

Stay calm and keep your distance

Do not approach, feed, or attempt to interact with it

Keep dogs on a leash and pick up small pets if it is safe to do so

Make yourself appear larger, make loud noises, and slowly back away if a coyote approaches

Do not run

Report any aggressive behaviour to the appropriate local authorities

Thank you for helping us keep our park safe for you, visitors, and wildlife.

DOGS on LEASH - Reminder - Dogs at the Community Park should be leashed, unless they are inside the dog park. There have been several instances this summer where unleashed dogs have attacked other dogs. 

AED/Defibrillator – Now at Miltonvale Community Park!
There is now an AED at Miltonvale Community Park. An AED is an automated external defibrillator, which is a portable medical device that checks the heart rhythm and delivers an electric shock to restart a heart during sudden cardiac arrest. To use it, the first step is to turn it on and follow the instructions on it. Now that the park is no longer staffed, the AED is in the shed by the Pickleball/tennis court. There is also an AED at the Milton Community Hall.
