Dog Days of Summer, hosted by Palmyra Real Food Emporium, returns for its second year from 12:30 to 8:30 p.m., August 24, at the Emporium, in Palmyra. Throughout the afternoon, attendees will savor summertime farm-fresh food, and a Dixieland-style jazz concert will provide entertainment into the evening. The celebration will take place regardless of weather.

Between 12:30 and 5:30 p.m., Grazing Pass holders are invited to nibble from a menu of grass-fed beef, pork, chicken, corn-on-the-cob, baked beans, salads and desserts, in addition to water, fresh iced tea and raw milk. Afterwards, The Hothouse Jazz Band will perform two blocks from the Emporium, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Bring a folding chair to both venues.

Tickets for the Grazing Pass or the show can be purchased separately for $12 for adults and $7 for children ages 6 to 10. Children under 6 are free. Reduced package ticket prices are available, and early bird discounts apply to tickets purchased by August 15.
