UNSPSC 50305359: Springcrest peaches

The variety of peaches known as springcrest peaches

UNSPSC 50305359 Springcrest peaches (Commodity) represents a narrow niche within state and local procurement for fresh produce in school nutrition programs and institutional food service. State and local governments buy Springcrest peaches almost exclusively through broader fresh-produce and fresh-fruit solicitations issued by school districts, school nutrition consortiums, county boards of education, and child care agencies; the peach variety itself is specified within line-item bid documents rather than solicited as a standalone commodity. Recent activity shows peaches appear as one item among 40–70 produce line items in comprehensive fresh-produce contracts supporting National School Lunch Program (NSLP), School Breakfast Program (SBP), USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program (FFVP), and Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP) meal service.

The issuing bodies are predominantly Georgia school districts (Bulloch County, Dougherty County, Bryan County, Glynn County, Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, Henry County), with secondary activity in Texas (McAllen ISD, Austin ISD, Edinburg municipal CACFP), Florida (Hillsborough County Public Schools), Connecticut (Meriden Public Schools), and Oregon (Central Point School District). A Georgia cooperative, the GEC Buying Cooperative, issued a multi-district RFP (SN 26-004) covering 30 districts across two regions with estimated annual spending of approximately $5.5 million on fresh produce and eggs combined. Representative recent opportunities include Muscogee County School District ITB 26-017 for approximately 60 produce line items with bids due April 27, 2026; Bulloch County School District IFP for locally-grown produce (items due May 4, 2026) specifying produce grown within 200 miles; and Austin Independent School District RFP 26RFP034 for fresh produce and beverages (due March 11, 2026) emphasizing Good Food Purchasing Program alignment and Texas-grown agricultural products. The GEC Buying Cooperative RFP SN 26-004 (due March 4, 2026) estimated Area One annual spending at $4.4 million for 18 districts and Area Two at $1.1 million for 12 districts. Peaches do not appear as a named line item in the recent solicitations reviewed; the code shows no dedicated procurement activity and likely sits within broader fresh-fruit categories where item-level specification depends on seasonal availability and district nutrition planning.
