he summer is finally here. The weather is beautiful and everyone seems a little happier. Well, except for you of course. You're stuck in the office staring out the window and dreaming of the weekend. It's a shitty position to be in, there's no doubt about that. But don't worry, Nathan's Philip's Square has at least lined up a two events per week to make your summer weekdays a little less painful: Fresh Wednesdays and Tasty Thursdays. These events will combine live concerts and delicious food to make your lunch hour feel a even more like a mini-vacation. The events run from July 9 to August 28.

Fresh Wednesdays

Ontario farmers will be set up in the square on Wednesdays, offering crisp vegetables, juicy fruits, pastries, fresh-cut flowers, and more. It's the perfect way to stock up on fresh produce before the winter hits and it all starts getting imported and freeze-dried.

July 9 Suzie Vinnick (roots and blues)

July 16 Nine-Mile (acoustic rock duo)

July 23 Melissa Larkin (folk rock)

July 30 Silk Road Duo (classical Chinese and world fusion)

August 6 Shawna Caspi (indie folk)

August 13 Tannis Slimmon (roots)

August 20 Carey West (singer songwriter)
