UNSPSC 50436204: Dried organic crookneck squash

The variety of organic summer squashes and summer pumpkins known as organic crookneck squash that has been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50436204 Dried organic crookneck squash is a Commodity code that captures state and local procurement of packaged dried vegetable products for institutional food service, including school nutrition programs, corrections facilities, and child nutrition initiatives. Recent opportunities show school districts and corrections agencies purchasing bulk dried vegetables alongside broader staple food supply contracts, though the opportunities available do not feature dried crookneck squash as a line item or stand-alone solicitation. Instead, the code appears peripherally within larger produce, grocery, and food-service vendor solicitations where dried or preserved vegetables may be included as part of meal-program supply bundles.

Issuing bodies soliciting under related produce and food-supply codes include school districts (Fairfax County Public Schools, Rockwood R-VI, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham County, Douglas County), state corrections departments (Oregon Department of Corrections, Texas Department of Criminal Justice via the Comptroller of Public Accounts), state agencies (Georgia, Illinois), and municipal child nutrition programs (City of Edinburg, Texas). The Texas Department of Criminal Justice and Oregon Department of Corrections appear as repeat institutional buyers. Geographic activity clusters in Texas, Georgia, Oregon, Missouri, and Virginia, reflecting state prison and school-system concentration. Representative recent opportunities include the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts' IFB 304T-26-300CF for cafeteria food products to supply TDCJ distribution points across five Texas regions (due May 4, 2026), Fairfax County Public Schools' IFB 2000004323 for Master Grocery K-12 serving 45 schools plus seven distribution kitchens (due April 27, 2026), and the Oregon Department of Corrections' ITB S2910000016233 for 127,500 pounds of dried pinto beans (due March 20, 2026). No recent solicitation in the source explicitly names dried organic crookneck squash; the code shows minimal direct procurement activity in current state and local market.
