We’ve found our new home…
After 365 days from the doors closing at the OCTOBER26 Bakery, we received confirmation that we would be getting the keys to our new home on Askew Road
Work begins to make it into STEMS & VINES now, and we’re aiming for a September Opening Week…
IT’S HAPPENING
🌸 🍷 Help Us Bring STEMS & VINES to Life:
A Flower Shop & Wine Bar for West London 🍷 🌸
We have curated a selection of REWARDS in exchange for your financial support of what we are trying to grow. From “Crowd Pleasers”, which is a little gift of thanks, to our “Community Builder” Memberships & our VIP “Partners-in Bloom” status, we hope you’ll find something to encourage you to pledge your support to blossom.
We’re raising £15,000 with this Crowdfunder to open the doors, and we’d love your help to do it. Read more…
GIFT CARDS
If none of the rewards float your boat, but you know you will be spending money with us when we open, then we would encourage you to purchase yourself some Gift Card Vouchers in advance… valid for 12 months and can be used online or in store.
By doing this, you will help us pay some of our start up bills, and the joy of a voucher is that you will basically feel like the flowers or wine are free, when you do come in to spend the vouchers… it’s a gift to your future self, from your past self - and I’ve heard they are a babe!
Order Flowers
Naturally Wild | Abundant | Seasonal
We work with a network of British Flower Farmers to ensure, the highest quality stems grown from around the UK; we also work with imported flowers when necessary, from our trusted family-owned wholesalers at New Covent Garden Market.
We don’t have set designs from which to choose because we love to be able to use the best of whats available to really celebrate seasonal blooms, and allow our designers the freedom to let the flowers do the talking. That is why there is the option to let us know what or who the flowers are for, so we can understand a little better the message you are conveying with the flowers.
Order Wine
Sustainably Created | Delicious | Made by Passionate People
In the gigantic world of wine, how do we choose which ones become part of our Vines collection…? Well it has to be said there is no one specific route or technique as to finding the wines we want to feature.
Firstly we have to LOVE it, and it must taste like something we would be happy to give as a gift, take to a friends house and be happy to serve to someone we’ve just met.
Secondly we have several long-standing relationships with some of the most revered wine wholesalers based in London, whose knowledge and extensive research into their producers means we are in safe hands with their recommendations.
Thirdly, we like to work directly with the vineyards and producers, or collectives - getting to know the people behind the wines allow us to know exactly who we are selling the wine for, knowing why they are so passionate about the wines they create and what makes their bottles different & special compared to all the other competition.
Lastly, we let the universe bring producers to us from all over the place - whenever anyone tells us they know a producer here, there and everywhere; we strive to make a connection and sample the wines we find… if we love it, it’s coming into our collection. This happens IRL but also via social media & connections made online… for instance Sandridge Barton came into our radar, because we visited the Flowers Exhibition at the Saatchi Gallery, one of the artworks really spoke to Philippa, she found the artist, Sophie Mess, on Instagram, and saw that she had recently created the artwork for the vineyards “Don’t Feed the Ponies” range of experimental & low-interventional wines supporting the preservation of Dartmoor National Park.
