UNSPSC 50584902: Non GMO garden huckleberry

The variety of Non GMO nightshades known as Non GMO garden huckleberry. 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 50584902 Non GMO garden huckleberry is a Commodity code that captures fresh produce procurement by state and local governments, though the recent opportunity record shows no direct solicitations for huckleberries specifically. Instead, the code's activity reflects broader fresh-produce buying across county recreation departments, health-care coalitions, state food-service programs, and school districts. State and local buyers under this code seek fresh fruits and vegetables meeting quality, food-safety, and delivery standards; the solicitations emphasize seasonal availability, freshness guarantees, compliance with health regulations, and adherence to domestic-sourcing and nutritional preferences where applicable. Issuing bodies include county park and recreation divisions, county boards of education managing National School Lunch and School Breakfast Programs, state purchasing offices, and specialized health-care procurement entities. School districts appear as frequent users, with district-level solicitations requesting line-by-line bids for 300+ food items including fresh produce alongside non-food supplies and requiring compliance with USDA whole-grain and nutrition standards, Buy American provisions, and HACCP food-safety plans.

Recent activity spans multiple states and jurisdiction types. Early County Board of Education (Georgia) issued an IFB in May 2026 due June 8, 2026 for fresh fruits and vegetables as part of a comprehensive food-and-supplies bid covering the 2026–2027 school year with firm pricing and six-month escalation review cycles. Marion Health Care Coalition (location not specified in the summary but inferred from the solicitation number format) solicited produce proposals in August 2026 due August 21, 2026 covering the 2026–2027 contract period with seasonal pricing adjustments. The State of Georgia posted a food-supplies and kitchen-products bid in May 2026 due June 22, 2026 with full scope in the attached specification document. Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Florida) issued an Invitation to Negotiate in October 2026 due March 6, 2025 for food-service operations at North Collier Regional Park, which includes fresh produce as part of a full-service concession operation. The code shows active recent procurement across Florida, Georgia, and additional states, with school districts and county recreation programs as primary repeat buyers.
