UNSPSC 50356305: Frozen organic timperley early rhubarb

The variety of organic rhubarb known as organic timperley early rhubarb that has been frozen for preservation.

UNSPSC 50356305 Frozen organic timperley early rhubarb is a Commodity code that in practice captures state and local procurement of shelf-stable and fresh produce items for food-service programs, though recent solicitations show minimal activity specifically targeting frozen rhubarb and substantially greater volume in broader produce categories. State and local governments buying under this code are primarily school districts and boards of education, supplemented by county departments of community services and state agencies. The work solicited ranges from fresh produce spanning apples, berries, cruciferous and root vegetables, melons, and citrus to frozen products, shelf-stable grocery items, and associated kitchen supplies — all acquired to support National School Lunch Programs, School Breakfast Programs, and community nutrition services.

Recent activity concentrates in Georgia, where Hancock County Board of Education (IFB for fresh produce, 200+ line items, bids due June 26, 2026), Early County Board of Education (line-by-line food and non-food bid with approximately 300+ food items, due June 8, 2026), Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners (informal written quotes for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items, due October 19, 2026), and the State of Georgia (bids on food and kitchen products, due June 22, 2026) all posted opportunities within the past five months. Outside Georgia, the City of Bridgeport Department of Public Purchases on behalf of the Bridgeport Board of Education sought grocery items for the National School Lunch Program across 1,100+ line items (electronic bids due June 30, 2026, already closed). School districts appear as the primary repeat buyers; pricing is typically firm fixed with no fuel or freight surcharges permitted, delivery windows are constrained to weekday business hours, and Buy American provisions requiring a minimum 51 percent domestic agricultural commodity content are standard.
