UNSPSC 50416201: Organic boston marrow squash

The variety of organic summer squashes and organic summer pumpkins known as organic boston marrow squash

UNSPSC 50416201 Organic boston marrow squash is a Commodity code that nominally describes a single produce item, yet the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it reflect broad fresh produce procurement for school nutrition and institutional food service — solicitations naming dozens of vegetable and fruit line items, not organic boston marrow squash specifically. School districts dominate the issuing-body mix: Early County Board of Education, Northside Independent School District (San Antonio), Hillsborough County Public Schools (Tampa), Bulloch County School District, Rockwood R-VI School District (Missouri), Liberty County Board of Education, Muscogee County School District, Savannah-Chatham County Public School System, Glynn County Board of Education, McAllen Independent School District, and Austin Independent School District all posted opportunities in the block. A cooperative procurement through the GEC Buying Cooperative on behalf of 30 school districts across Georgia appears as well. State agencies—Georgia Department of Education posting fresh produce and food supply bids—round out the buyer base. The code shows heavy recent activity across Georgia, Texas, and Missouri, with secondary presence in Florida.

Representative recent opportunities include the Early County Board of Education's IFB for line-by-line food bids (due June 8, 2026) covering approximately 300 food items and 60 non-food and paper supplies for the National School Lunch Program and School Breakfast Program; Northside Independent School District's RFP 2026-048 for fresh produce delivered five days per week to all campuses (due May 7, 2026) with pricing weighted 35% on purchase price and evaluation criteria emphasizing HACCP certification, Buy American compliance, and Texas-grown sourcing; Hillsborough County Public Schools' RFP for the USDA Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program serving 18 elementary schools (due March 11, 2026, extended) under a cost-plus fixed-fee-per-case model with an estimated annual budget of $600,000; and the GEC Buying Cooperative RFP SN 26-004 spanning two geographic areas in Georgia with estimated annual spending of approximately $4.4 million for Area One and $1.1 million for Area Two (due March 4, 2026). All solicitations emphasize HACCP certification, compliance with USDA Buy American provisions, firm fixed pricing for contract duration, and delivery on fixed weekly schedules with temperature control and food safety documentation. Set-asides and disadvantaged-business designations do not appear prominently in the block; Austin ISD explicitly encourages minority and women-owned business participation and Good Food Purchasing Program alignment, but no formal set-asides are noted across the opportunities.
