Labour Day is celebrated on the first Monday of September and is a tribute to the contributions and achievements of workers. Labour Day is not just a day off but a chance to recognize the hard-working efforts of those who built and continue to build our societies.


At Mikmada Homes, we believe in creating more than just homes; we build communities where families can make memories that last a lifetime. Whether you're spending the Labour Day weekend relaxing on your deck, exploring your neighborhood celebrations, or hosting friends and family, we hope your home is a place of joy and comfort.
