The Milton Chamber’s operational location begins with the Delaware Bay inward, making it a true coastal destination.
“The historic and charming town of Milton is the heart of the Milton and Harbeson region and our doors are wide open for businesses with new restaurants, shops, the Milton Theatre, Dogfish Head and Dewey Beach breweries, Brimming Horn Meadery, Twin Branch Winery, and many new businesses offering a wide array of services.
