Food Safety News reported the development on 2026-09-10. This is the third outbreak since 2011 linked to Evergreen Sprouts.

The report places the news in a wider commercial context. The CDC is investigating a new Salmonella outbreak linked to fresh sprouts. The multistate outbreak has sickened 55 people across four states, hospitalizing two. The Food and Drug Administration is reporting that the Salmonella Bovismorbificans infections are linked to broccoli sprouts produced by Evergreen Fresh Sprouts LLC of Moyie Springs, ID.

For the food sector, the practical implications extend beyond the immediate announcement. The sick people live in Idaho, Montana, Utah and Washington. The company reports that its sprouts were distributed in Idaho, Montana and Washington but may have been further distributed. This outbreak is separate from a Salmonella outbreak linked to Everything Sprouts LLC.

Attention now turns to how companies, customers and regulators respond. In the outbreak linked to Evergreen Sprouts, illnesses began on July 7 with the most recent person becoming ill on Aug. 26. Of 19 people with information available, all 19 reported eating sprouts and 17 reported eating broccoli sprouts.
