UNSPSC 50584701: Non GMO black trumpet mushrooms

The variety of Non GMO mushrooms known as Non GMO black trumpet mushrooms. This means that they are produced without the use of methods that genetically modify organisms by means that are not possible under natural conditions. Such methods include cell fusion, microencapsulation and macro-encapsulation, and recombinant DNA technology (including gene deletion, gene doubling, introducing a foreign gene, and changing the positions of genes when achieved by recombinant DNA technology).

Traditional methods of breeding, conjugation, fermentation, hybridization, in vitro fertilization, or tissue culture are considered to be non-GMO.

UNSPSC 50584701 Non GMO black trumpet mushrooms, a Commodity code, encompasses specialty fresh produce items that state and local jurisdictions source for food service operations across parks, schools, healthcare facilities, and institutional dining programs. The recent opportunities under this code show state and local buyers purchasing fresh produce — including specialty mushrooms and other fruits and vegetables — through a mix of direct procurement and vendor qualification processes. Issuing bodies include county park systems, school districts operating national school lunch programs, state procurement offices, and healthcare coalitions. The scope of work reflects institutional food service buying: school districts issue line-by-line food bids requiring compliance with USDA nutrition standards and domestic sourcing preferences; parks departments solicit food vendors to operate concessions across multiple venues; and healthcare coalitions and state agencies request produce deliveries meeting quality, freshness, and delivery-timeline standards. These solicitations emphasize food safety compliance, product freshness guarantees, and adherence to regulatory standards for institutional meal programs.

Recent activity spans multiple states and jurisdictions. Early County Board of Education (Georgia) issued a line-by-line food bid due June 8, 2026 covering approximately 300 food items including fresh vegetables and fruits for school breakfast and lunch programs with domestic sourcing and whole-grain preferences. The State of Georgia posted a food supplies and kitchen products solicitation due June 22, 2026. Marion Health Care Coalition (location not specified in the source) sought produce proposals due August 21, 2026 for the 2026-2027 contract period. Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) issued an Invitation to Negotiate due March 6, 2025 for food services at North Collier Regional Park, requiring diverse, high-quality food and beverage options across multiple venues with a 10-point local-vendor preference for vendors meeting Collier or Lee County business address and residency criteria. School districts and county parks departments are the most visible repeat categories, with activity concentrated in Georgia and Florida as of the most recent postings.
