• Explore options within commercial market and USDA Foods.
• Be creative: include growers, processors and products that
do not currently serve the K-12 market.
• Reach out to all processors large enough to serve one,
some, or all districts.
• Investigate potential for local supply.
• Identify gaps in infrastructure.

24. Local Fresh and Frozen Produce RFI
Sought specific information:
1. Availability of local produce, including CIS
2. Capacity to aggregate, process and freeze
locally grown produce
3. Gaps in infrastructure that inhibit capacity
to serve large urban school districts
While projected pricing is requested, it is not binding and does not impact individual school districts current
procurement practice. Information from this RFI will be used to determine practicality of local produce
procurement and to develop a bid template for future local fresh and frozen produce that may be used by
the identified districts and other districts for the following school year
25. Cosmetically Imperfect “Seconds”
• What are they?
• Too large, small, or misshapen.
• Cosmetically imperfect (color,
scratches) but same nutritional quality.
• What are they not?
• Gleaned.
• Diseased or nutritionally
compromised.

26. Cosmetically Imperfect “Seconds”
• Why are we interested?
• Typically plowed under - environmental impacts.
• Cost savings
• (e.g. MPS & Organic Valley Squash).
• Avenue to access local/organic/sustainable food.

27. Geographic Preference and Produce
• Geographic Preference Primer at
www.schoolfoodfocus.org
• UMRLL Districts’ procurement documents reviewed
and updated by the Harrison Institute for Public Law at
Georgetown University Law Center
• Clearly stated intent to value local purchases creates
awareness of local procurement
28. Supply Chain Conundrum:
Transparency vs Traceability
Transparency – knowing who/where product
comes from before the purchase is made
Traceability – knowing who/where product
comes from after the purchase is made
Transparency is the gold standard, traceability is the first step
