UNSPSC 50336302: Dried organic early champagne rhubarb

The variety of organic rhubarb known as organic early champagne rhubarb that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50336302 Dried organic early champagne rhubarb, a Commodity code, nominally identifies a specific dried produce item, but the recent state and local opportunities solicited under this code reveal that school districts and correctional facilities are actually purchasing broad fresh and processed produce portfolios, dried fruits and nuts, and related food service items rather than champagne rhubarb specifically. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix—Hancock County Schools (Georgia), Fairfax County Public Schools (Virginia), Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Liberty County Board of Education (Georgia), Savannah-Chatham County Public School System (Georgia), and Douglas County School System (Georgia)—alongside correctional food services in Texas and Santa Clara County, California. The scope of work spans fresh produce (apples, berries, vegetables, citrus, leafy greens), eggs, dried fruits and nuts, dairy, proteins, grains, condiments, and prepared entrees delivered weekly to schools and facilities, with Buy American compliance (minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural commodity content in processed products) and USDA nutritional standards required across nearly all solicitations. Pricing is firm fixed for the contract term, typically July 1 through June 30 annually, with delivery to multiple school sites or correctional facilities on FOB Destination terms.

Recent activity clusters in the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic regions, with Georgia school districts accounting for at least four separate recent opportunities (Hancock County, Liberty County, Savannah-Chatham, and Douglas County). Representative solicitations include Hancock County Schools' IFB for fresh produce (over 200 line items, due June 26, 2026), Fairfax County Public Schools' Master Grocery K-12 contract spanning 45 schools and distribution kitchens (IFB 2000004323, due April 27, 2026), Rockwood R-VI's grocery items procurement covering over 900 line items (due April 29, 2026), Douglas County's food supply and distribution RFP for approximately $9 million in annual expenditures across 32 schools (due February 18, 2026), and Santa Clara County's dried fruits and nuts ITB for correctional food services (due February 5, 2026). The code shows active, consistent procurement from school nutrition programs and institutional food services nationwide, though the posted opportunities do not align precisely with dried organic champagne rhubarb as a line item.
