UNSPSC 50585904: Non GMO wood sorrel

The variety of Non GMO sorrel known as Non GMO wood sorrel. 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 50585904 Non GMO wood sorrel is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned to its nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code involve general food service and produce procurement — Collier County's concession food services at regional parks, Marion Health Care Coalition's fresh fruit and vegetable supply, the State of Georgia's broad food and kitchen products bids, and Early County Board of Education's school lunch program sourcing — none of which center on wood sorrel or specialty vegetables as a distinct line item. The issuing bodies span county parks and recreation divisions, healthcare coalitions, state agencies, and school districts. This mismatch suggests the code is either rarely applied in state and local procurement or has been misattributed to food-service and produce opportunities that do not isolate specialty vegetables or greens.

Geographic activity includes Georgia (State of Georgia procurement and Early County schools) and Florida (Collier County parks). The representative recent opportunities show typical food-service and produce sourcing: Collier County Board of County Commissioners issued an Invitation to Negotiate for food concessions at North Collier Regional Park with proposals due March 6, 2025, and Early County Board of Education released line-by-line bids for school meal program food and non-food items due June 8, 2026. Neither of these solicitations emphasizes non-GMO specialty produce or wood sorrel as a material category. The code shows no standout repeat buyers or concentrated geographic demand, and the recent activity does not support a clear market signal for specialty vegetable sourcing at the state or local level under this specific UNSPSC classification.
