Description of the flag

Flag is a logo on white.
Dave Fowler, 7 March 2022

The colors of the logo evoke the sky, the grass and the sun. The crossing of the colors expresses the close links maintained by people. The color division symbolizes spade, agriculture and rural life. The logo's general shape refers in base to an apple, the municipality's historical emblem, and in chief to letter "M" for "Miltonnais" and to hills. Flying above the hills, the seeds represents family and a sparkling environment evoking leaves and trees represented through social advent.
