UNSPSC 50474808: Canned or jarred organic hen of the woods mushrooms

The variety of organic mushrooms known as organic hen of the woods mushrooms that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50474808 Canned or jarred organic hen of the woods mushrooms is a Commodity code that in practice encompasses a narrow subset of state and local procurement — canned and jarred specialty mushroom products for institutional food service operations. The recent opportunities block shows little direct solicitation for organic hen of the woods mushrooms specifically; instead, state and local buyers purchasing under this code are acquiring canned and jarred shelf-stable vegetables and proteins as line items within broader food service procurements. Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, the Oregon Department of Corrections, Ben Hill County Schools, Burke County Public Schools, and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice have all recently solicited food products that likely include canned and jarred items, though the opportunities posted do not isolate mushroom products as individual line items. Issuing bodies include state health and corrections agencies, counties, and school districts sourcing consumables for state supported living centers, senior services centers, correctional facilities, and school nutrition programs.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted IFB HHS0018082 on October 16, 2026 (bids due October 23, 2026) for consumables including prepared foods and food service supplies for the Lufkin State Supported Living Center; Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners posted IWQ 140229 on October 13, 2026 (quotes due October 19, 2026) for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food products including canned proteins and vegetables for the Department of Community Services. The Oregon Department of Corrections posted an IFB for approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes on June 5, 2026 (bids due June 19, 2026) with Oregon fabrication and resident-bidder preferences. However, the code itself shows no recent direct solicitation for canned or jarred organic mushrooms as a named commodity; the code's narrow scope and absence of standalone mushroom opportunities suggest limited near-term pursuit potential without confirmed end-user demand for the product line.
