UNSPSC 50414024: Organic tarragon

The variety of organic herbs known as organic tarragon

UNSPSC 50414024 Organic tarragon is a Commodity code that covers fresh culinary herbs for food service and institutional dining operations. State and local governments procure organic tarragon primarily as a line item within broader food supply contracts for school districts, health and human services facilities, correctional institutions, and state agencies. The scope of buying under this code extends beyond tarragon itself to encompass specialty produce, fresh herbs, and ingredient-level food items that institutions source as part of comprehensive grocery procurement. Issuing bodies include state departments of health and human services, state-level purchasing divisions, county school districts, and special-purpose districts managing institutional food service. Texas Health and Human Services Commission and school districts in Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Illinois, and Virginia represent the primary active buyers, with contracts ranging from supplemental specialty food items to comprehensive line-item-based grocery awards serving thousands of daily meals across multiple facilities.

Recent procurement activity centers on large institutional food supply contracts where organic tarragon appears as one line item among hundreds or thousands. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0017449 in June 2026 for food and consumable products serving the HHSC El Paso State Supported Living Center and the Department of State Health Services (response due July 13, 2026), with a historical contract value of $1.5 million for the prior period and contract term through August 2028. The Texas Department of Criminal Justice, through the Comptroller of Public Accounts Statewide Procurement Division, solicited cafeteria food products via IFB 304T26300CF (response due May 4, 2026) covering approximately 382 line items across multiple TDCJ warehouse locations. Fairfax County Public Schools issued IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 (response due April 27, 2026) establishing supply and delivery to 45 schools plus distribution kitchens. The Rockwood R-VI School District in Missouri solicited grocery items for child nutrition services (response due April 29, 2026) covering over 900 line items serving approximately 6,900 daily lunch participants. Organic tarragon and similar specialty herbs typically appear as optional or preferred items within these broader solicitations rather than as standalone procurement opportunities, with activity concentrated in states managing large institutional food service operations—Texas, Georgia, Missouri, Illinois, and Virginia.
