Where were the recalled seeds sold?
The recalled Calabrese broccoli seeds were shipped to customers nationwide. Eden Brothers says the affected products were sold through its own website and Amazon between July 8 and September 28, 2026, with exact sale dates varying by size.
Why were the seeds recalled?
Eden Brothers says its supplier notified the company that the seeds may be contaminated with Salmonella. FDA’s broader outbreak investigation links supplier lot W4105 to a multistate Salmonella Bovismorbificans investigation involving broccoli sprouts and microgreens.
FDA reported 32 illnesses and three hospitalizations in the broader outbreak investigation as of its October 7 update. Those case counts apply to the outbreak investigation as a whole, not specifically to Eden Brothers customers. Eden Brothers’ company announcement says no illnesses had been reported from its recalled product at the time of the recall notice.
What should customers do?
- Stop using the affected seed lots immediately.
- Do not plant, sprout, eat or share the recalled seeds.
- Do not use them to grow microgreens.
- Seal the seeds in a bag and dispose of them in household trash rather than compost.
- Wash hands and clean containers or surfaces that touched the seeds.
- If you shared the seeds with someone else, tell them about the recall.
How to get a refund
Eden Brothers says it is offering a full refund for the recalled seeds. Customers should use the company’s recall reply process so the customer-service team can follow up. The FDA notice also lists Eden Brothers Customer Service at 855-440-2929, Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET.
How this recall connects to the FDA outbreak investigation
The October 7 FDA outbreak update says investigators found Salmonella in a seed sample from the supplier linked to the investigation. Whole genome sequencing matched the outbreak strain. That led to downstream recalls involving seed sellers including Eden Brothers and Home Grown.
Consumers should distinguish between the separate products and lot codes. The Eden Brothers recall covers lots 1022067 and 1022068. A separate Home Grown broccoli seed recall sold on Amazon uses a different product package and lot code.
