Truckin' Tuesdays will bring food trucks to downtown Milton

Milton’s emerging cool factor will be amped up every second and fourth Tuesday evening this summer, as a convoy of food trucks pulls into the historic town center for Truckin’ Tuesday, a program designed to attract visitors to the community’s rapidly changing commercial core.

“We’re very excited about this project,” said Lisa Sumstine, executive director of the Milton Chamber of Commerce, which is sponsoring the series. “Milton’s history and small town charm practically beg you to walk around and explore. There’s no better way to do that than with a portable meal from a food truck.”

A variety of foods will be offered, ranging from Indonesian delicacies to traditional summer burgers and dogs.

The twice-monthly event will take place from 6 to 8 p.m., on the grounds of the Lydia B. Cannon Museum at the corner of Union and Magnolia streets, and will include live music and Milton’s own Dogfish Head Brewery beers.

Truckin’ Tuesday will take place July 14, July 28, Aug. 11 and Aug. 25.
