If you or your child became ill after eating sprouts, Ron Simon & Associates can help assess a possible claim involving Evergreen Fresh Sprouts broccoli sprouts. You may have eaten them in a sandwich, salad, wrap, or bowl without seeing a package.
CDC and FDA link 22 Salmonella illnesses in Idaho, Montana, Utah, and Washington to broccoli sprouts grown by Evergreen Fresh Sprouts, LLC of Moyie Springs, Idaho. Two people were hospitalized, and no deaths have been reported. Illnesses began from July 7 through August 26, 2026. The investigation remains open.
Which Sprouts Are Involved?
The recalled broccoli sprouts went to grocery stores, food co-ops, restaurants, and food service customers. Distribution is confirmed in Idaho, Montana, and Washington, but the agencies warn they may have reached other states. A reported illness in Utah doesn’t establish that the product was distributed there.
The company lists the recalled bags as “No Brand Name.” FDA photos show plain packaging, so you might not recognize the grower’s name. Agencies also identify plastic clamshell containers. The recalled-products section has the exact package details and five affected dates.
The company’s delivery dates for the recalled lots are narrower than the period covered by the outbreak. Don’t rule out asking for help solely because your illness began before the September recall.
What Investigators Know
CDC says a package of broccoli sprouts collected from a sick person’s home carried the same Salmonella strain as the outbreak. FDA traced the sprouts eaten by patients to Evergreen Fresh Sprouts. CDC’s investigation update says the company’s broccoli sprouts “are contaminated with Salmonella and are making people sick.”
FDA is still investigating how contamination happened and whether additional products are affected. That investigation may help establish the evidence for individual claims, but it doesn’t determine whether any particular person’s illness belongs to the outbreak.
This is being investigated separately from the alfalfa sprouts E. coli and Salmonella outbreak. CDC says the two don’t appear related. They involve different growers and sprouts, so their case counts and recalls shouldn’t be combined.
