What Makes Root & Stem Different?

Elegant, not pretentious

The technical skills to put foams and pipettes on every plate…the restraint to know we don’t need to. Root & Stem specializes in innovative and unique menus that are always beyond the ordinary, but without the fuss.

Team-Driven Collaboration

The Root & Stem team is skilled to provide the utmost in service. Like larger catering companies, we are able to execute your events seamlessly and with a professional, thorough staff. However we are small enough to provide the intimate and caring service you desire. Because we genuinely hold our clients in high esteem, we work with you as part of our team to bring your event to life.

Community

We believe in giving back. Whether through our own private and individual affiliations with philanthropies or our partnerships with nationally affiliated nonprofits, Root & Stem gives back to the community.

Fresh

Everything we serve is guaranteed to be handmade, fresh, and from scratch. You won’t see any big box deliveries to our office. Our vendor team of local farmers, artisans, and butchers provide the highest quality of goods to serve your guests.

Optimal Quality for Optimal Flavor

We know that a Caprese salad with hothouse tomatoes and mass-produced mozzarella cannot possibly compare to the simple, bright acidity of an in-season heirloom tomato and hand-pulled mozzarella. We believe in letting the lush flavor profiles of seasonal produce speak to our clients’ palates, and using our skill and expertise to provide tasteful refinement of those flavors.

Vendors

We are nothing without the skilled farmers, butchers, and artisans whose products we use, as well as the regional vendors that we collaborate with to make your events come to life. View more information on our amazing vendors.
