Plant yourself at the bar: Stem and Vine takes root downtown

The short version

The feature that captured the whole idea

The Banner walked in the way you would, past the floor-to-ceiling windows full of green, back to the bar.

In January 2024, the Baltimore Banner profiled Stem & Vine as one of downtown's newest gathering places: a plant shop, art retailer, and full bar sharing one room on the 300 block of North Charles Street. The piece follows the three years of work it took founder Quincy Goldsmith to grow the idea into a storefront, and the intention behind it, plants, pours, and artwork all serving as starting points for people to connect and learn.

It remains the fullest portrait of what we do here. You can meet the people behind it on our about page, or browse the rest of our coverage on the press page.

The bar still pours, the plants still carry their stories, and the room still holds up to 120 guests. Come take root.
