The time period that you are referring to is called the summer solstice. It begins around June 21-22 and ends around September 22. This is the time when the earth's path around the sun has forced the Northern Hemisphere to start pointing directly at the sun. At that point, every part of the Northern Hemisphere sees the sun for more than 12 hours and every part of the Southern Hemisphere sees the sun for less than 12 hours.

Why continuous darkeness in Greenland in winters?
The tilt of the Earth causes the difference in the length of night and day. As you move to the North, days become longer in summer, shorter in winter. Greenland is very far North, and the days become shorter and shorter as they near the winter solstice (around 21 December).

Does fall or winter have the shortest days?
The days with the least amount of daylight are in winter. Actually, December 21 is the first day of winter and the hours of daylight actually begin to increase. So, it's a tie. From June 21 until Dec. 21, the days get shorter and from Dec. 21 they get longer.
Why does the day shorten in the winter?
The earth's axis begins tipping away from the sun at the time of the summer solstice ( June 21 ) from that point on until the winter solstice the days become increasingly shorter ( about a minute or so per day ).
