Main Street Milton (MSM) is reviving the downtown farmers market in Milton. Formerly known as the Riverwalk Market, the new Main Street Market will bring the best of local produce, food, arts and crafts to Milton. Relocating from the Riverwalk area to the more visible City Parking Lot located at 6850 Caroline Street (Highway 90), in the heart of Downtown Milton, the Main Street Market will provide a variety of locally grown produce, gifts, arts and crafts, flowers, clothing, prepared and hot food items and live entertainment from local artists. The Main Street Market will be held on the first Saturday of the month in October, November and December from 8 a.m. to noon. For the fall, those dates are Oct. 6, Nov. 3 and Dec. 1. The Market will resume in the spring with dates in March, April and May.
