The variety of summer squashes and summer pumpkins known as kentucky field squash that has been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50466212 Canned or jarred Kentucky field squash, a Commodity code, sees sporadic state and local procurement activity centered on school nutrition programs and institutional food service operations. State and local governments use this code to source prepared vegetable products for cafeteria menus, institutional dining facilities, and food service distribution networks, typically as part of broader grocery and food-supply solicitations rather than as standalone line items. The code appears primarily in multi-category food procurement opportunities issued by school districts, state health and human services agencies managing residential facilities, and state correctional systems, with issuers spanning small rural school systems to large urban districts and statewide institutional networks.

Recent opportunities show limited direct activity under this specific commodity code; the source materials reflect one direct posting and several broader food-supply solicitations that may encompass canned or jarred vegetables. The State of Illinois Illinois Veterans Home in Quincy issued an RFQ for weekly food orders (solicitation 26497DVAQUINCB51106, due February 24, 2026) covering brand-specific or equal products across 24 line items, and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued an IFB for supplemental food and consumable products for state hospitals and state supported living centers statewide (HHS0016792, due February 23, 2026) covering 210 line items. School districts in Missouri (Rockwood R-VI), Georgia (Liberty County, Muscogee County, Savannah-Chatham), and Virginia (Fairfax County) have posted broad grocery and food-supply IFBs and RFPs during spring 2026 that encompass canned vegetables as component line items within multi-hundred-item procurements. Geographic concentration appears heaviest in the South and Midwest, with Georgia school districts particularly active in fresh-produce and grocery procurement. Pricing in comparable recent canned-goods solicitations has ranged from approximately $13.75 to $27.75 per case depending on product type and volume, though no specific budget or award values are disclosed for this commodity code alone.
