UNSPSC 50313804: Organic mountain huckleberries

The variety of organic huckleberries known as organic mountain huckleberries

UNSPSC 50313804 Organic mountain huckleberries (Commodity) captures specialty fresh fruit procurement by state and local education, health care, parks, and county agencies — though recent solicitations show the code is being applied narrowly to school districts and regional organizations sourcing standard fresh produce and specialty items rather than specifically organic huckleberries. State and local buyers under this code acquire fresh fruits and vegetables for school nutrition programs (breakfast and lunch), regional parks concessions, and health care coalition food services. The sourcing emphasizes food-safety compliance, HACCP plans, temperature-controlled delivery, traceability documentation, and increasingly local or regional supply chains to shorten farm-to-table routes and meet USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program requirements. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix, with Hancock County Board of Education, Madison Metropolitan School District, Early County Board of Education, and Bartow County School System soliciting fresh produce on annual or multi-year cycles. County parks departments and regional health care coalitions also participate, as does the State of Georgia on food and kitchen supplies broadly.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia and Wisconsin. Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) issued an IFB for fresh produce across 200+ line items spanning apple varieties, berries, cruciferous vegetables, and specialty fruits for delivery through June 30, 2027 (sealed bids due June 26, 2026). Madison Metropolitan School District (Wisconsin) posted separate RFBs for petite bananas ($78,000 estimated annual value, 70–90 cases weekly, bids due July 29, 2026) and fresh fruit and vegetable snacks sourced within 400 miles of Madison (approximately 5,900 servings weekly, contract September–November 2026 with possible extensions, bids due July 29, 2026). Bartow County School System (Georgia) solicited local fresh fruits and vegetables with RFP 10-2026-019 (proposals due June 22, 2026, contract July 20, 2026–June 30, 2027). Early County Board of Education (Georgia) requested line-by-line food bids including 300+ food items and 60 non-food supplies for July 1, 2026–June 30, 2027 (bids due June 8, 2026). Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) sought food services for North Collier Regional Park via ITN with a 10-point local-vendor preference (proposals due March 6, 2025). Marion Health Care Coalition (Oregon) requested fresh-produce proposals for the 2026–2027 period (due August 21, 2026).
