The Nursery is located just east of Milton High School between Stewart and Alabama Streets and some on-street parking will be available. Overflow parking will be available at City Hall, with a convenient path leading to the nursery from the Dixon Street side of the property. Milton's City Hall is located just one block north of the nursery.
