Chef Spike Gjerde's Foodshed restaurant group is partnering with the Ivy Bookshop to open a bookstore-cafe in Charles Village.

Gjerde and Ivy Bookshop owners Ann and Ed Berlin plan to open the yet-to-be-named business at Nine East 33rd, the student housing development being built at St. Paul and 33rd streets.

While the cafe's culinary component will have offerings similar to Gjerde's Artifact Coffee (1500 Union Ave.) — including sandwiches, sweet and savory pastries and high-end coffee — it won't be called Artifact. Gjerde said the space will have a distinct atmosphere, and it won't have a full kitchen.

“It's going to be a very cool feel, but we can't try to replicate what happened at the first one,” Gjerde said. “We've taken our time. We wanted to find the right place, and we wanted to create something that's as special as the original.”

The shop is targeting an August opening, and it will cater to students at the Johns Hopkins University as well as members of the community.

Ed Berlin said the new shop will have a book collection about a third of the size of the Ivy Bookshop, which carries about 26,000 titles.

Gjerde said some of his favorite books on farming, the environment and cooking will also be available alongside the Ivy's collection.

Ed Berlin and Gjerde compared the concept to Louie's Bookstore Cafe, a Charles Street hangout in the 1980s and 1990s that closed in 1999.

“Everyone keeps saying, ‘Oh my God, we need a Louie's,'?” Ed Berlin said.

He said the new venue will become the primary home to the Ivy's events and give them room to grow.

The original bookstore, located at 6080 Falls Road, hits maximum capacity at 60 people, but the new space will be able to host between 75 and 100.

“It opens us up to a lot of opportunities that we haven't been able to take advantage of,” Berlin said.

Although many of the store's events will be relocated to the new venue, the original Ivy Bookshop will remain.

In brief

Cooper's Hawk Winery & Restaurants is opening its first Maryland location in Annapolis next month. The Chicago-based chain of 22 restaurants will make its debut at 1910 Towne Centre Blvd., Suite 200, on May 16.

In addition to its dining room, the Annapolis restaurant will have an outdoor dining terrace, tasting room, full bar, private dining room and retail section. The restaurant's tasting room will offer 48 varietals, and its menu pairs suggested wines with each dish.

All of Cooper's Hawk's wine is made at its winery in Chicago, with grapes sourced from California, Oregon and Washington state.

The restaurant group is targeting the Mid-Atlantic for expansion. Mike Moore, the group's chief restaurant operations officer, said there will likely be more locations to follow in Maryland and surrounding states. Cooper's Hawk already has locations in Richmond and Ashburn, Va. A third Virginia location will open next year in Reston.

The Annapolis restaurant will open at 11 a.m. daily and close at 9:30 p.m. on weekdays, 10:30 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, and 9 p.m. on Sundays.

The Baltimore Farmers' Market & Bazaar returns this weekend for its 39th season, running every Sunday through Dec. 18. The market, which offers local produce, meats, dairy, baked goods, spices, preserves and plants, is located on Saratoga Street between Holliday and Gay streets.

The outdoor market is open from 7 a.m. until noon, and the first 100 attendees on its opening day will receive a free tote bag, available at the welcome tent.

New vendors for the 2016 season include Chile Compano, Two Boots Farm, Argonne Apiary, artist Gloria Garrett, Matthew Williams of Mount Royal Soap Company, Meatcrafter's Market and Molly Wilson of Harbor Goods.

This year, the market will also offer an expanded cooking demonstration program with local chefs, starting with Chef Egg (Erik Berlin), who will host a demo from 9 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. near the Saratoga Street entrance on the market's first day.
