Get Started with the OWL Pantry
Sign up once and you are ready to visit. Open to all Odyssey families.
A Mini Grocery Store, Built for Our Families.
The OWL Pantry is not a handout line. It is set up like a small grocery store, and you choose what your family actually needs.
You will find fresh, frozen, and non perishable food, plus toiletries, clothing, school supplies, and other essential household items. It is open year round, in Building 20, on our campus.
Open year round
No appointment necessary
Visit every week
What Is on the Shelves.
Stock changes with the season and with what is harvested that week. On a typical visit you can expect to find:
Fresh Produce
Fresh greens, fruit, potatoes, and mushrooms, often harvested right from our campus farm.
Pantry Staples
A variety of protein options and freshly baked breads to help stock your kitchen cabinets.
Frozen & Non-Perishables
Frozen foods and meals, along with non-perishable boxed and canned items.
Personal Care
Essential toiletries and personal care items like toothpaste, soap, and hygiene products.
School & Household Essentials
From notebooks and pencils to basic cleaning supplies and household necessities.
Free Uniforms, Too.
The Pantry stocks free school uniforms alongside the groceries. Children grow fast and uniforms wear out fast. If your child needs a size that is not in your closet, come take one.
Some of This Food Was Grown by Our Students.
Throughout the growing season, the Pantry stocks fruits, herbs, and vegetables harvested from our own Urban Farm and Hydroponic Lab, right here on campus.
Our students plant it. Our students tend it. Our students harvest it. Then it goes to the families in their own school community. That loop is Filotimo in the plainest terms we know how to say it: leading with the heart, and putting humanity first.
