We're On The Move!

After much searching, we have found our new Lindsay store location! On May 9, 2024, we will say goodbye to our existing store and hello to our new location. We look forward to welcoming everyone to the new store located at 370 Kent Street in the Whitney Town Centre. This location offers customers a more convenient location with lots of free parking and great street visibility.

Our family business roots run deep in Lindsay. 48 years ago, our founder Jo Anne Fallaise, started Jo Anne’s Place from her home in Lindsay, and as demand grew, she moved the business to retail spaces in Lindsay and Peterborough. From the very beginning, we have welcomed, supported, and educated so many customers - Customers who have become friends and have trusted us to support their children and even their grandchildren.


Lindsay has definitely grown over the last four decades, and we are proud to grow alongside this beautiful town. We are excited to re-invest in our roots and serve you better than ever before in our new space.


As we make the transition to our new location, our current store will be closed from May 4 - 8th.

Fiddleheads: How to Cook This Delicious Spring Delicacy Safely

By April Allen • May 21, 2026
Fiddlehead season is here! After a long winter, fiddlehead season has finally arrived. Not familiar with fiddleheads or just want to learn a bit more about them, and how to cook them safely? Keep reading! You may have seen fiddleheads in the wild and not even realized it. That's because they are the furled fronds of a fledgling fern! The fiddlehead is the spiral of the plant that would unroll into a new frond of the fern plant. They are harvested before they unfurl, early in the season. Only the fiddleheads from certain fern varieties are safe to consume. Fiddleheads should never be eaten raw and must be cooked a certain way to be safe to eat, so be sure to follow the instructions below. Fiddleheads have been part of traditional diets in Northern France since the Middle Ages, and amongst many North American Indigenous populations for centuries. They are also popular in Asian cuisine dishes like gulai pakis.
