Locally sourced pantry staples, gifts, beer, wine, and prepared meals
"Odd Provisions proudly stays stocked with local cheese, jams, pickles, and ready-to-eat items like ice cream sandwiches. If you’re lucky, you might even come by when local vendors are offering tastings of delicious foodstuffs. This corner market also has gift baskets filled with tinned fish, sopressata, and sea salt caramels for an extra-fancy picnic session, or you can grab prepared salads and sandwiches that change seasonally. There are plenty of small parks in Columbia Heights to camp out with a fancy charcuterie haul, plus some lovely larger green spaces in nearby Petworth, like Sherman Circle." - Emily Venezky
"Odd Provisions carried Z&Z jars during the pandemic when farmers markets shrank, helping the family sustain online and retail sales for their za’atar and sumac while frozen manoushe became a larger part of their business." - Charlotte Goddu
"Officina Provisions offers Italian meal prep kits with oven-ready meals, premium cuts, and fresh produce, delivering throughout the D.C. area."
"I noted that Odd Provisions, a local gourmet market, helped Dio retool its menu." - Tierney Plumb
"Across the street in Columbia Heights, I learned that this small gourmet market—founded in 2016 by Room 11 vets Jessica Woods and Rachel Mowrer—has partnered permanently with Dio under the Odd@Dio collaboration. The menu collaboration includes a spicy salami sandwich with herb pesto and fennel confit, seasonal salads, and cheese and charcuterie offerings such as chicken liver mousse (priced $6–$9), and Odd Provisions will also carry special Dio wine orders. The partnership brings Odd Provisions’ market items directly into Dio’s service and menu rotation starting tomorrow." - Tierney Plumb
