It’s hard to believe summer is winding down! While the last full day of summer is officially September 22 (the first full day of fall is Thursday, September 23), Labor Day is considered the “unofficial” last weekend of the season. It’s a federal holiday celebrated on the first Monday in September in both the United States and Canada. In 2022 Labor Day (or Labour Day in Canada) is Monday, September 5.
