Shenandoah Growers of imported organic Basil due to Cyclospora

The FDA announced on its website that Shenandoah Growers, Inc (Harrisonburg, VA), has issued a limited, voluntary recall of approximately 15,000 units in select packages due to possible health risk from Cyclospora. These were packed under branded and private label fresh-cut organic-certified basil clamshells at its Jefferson, GA facility and Harrisonburg, VA facility.  The recalled products were distributed to select retail stores between 10/20/2020 and 10/30/2020 in various states, including Georgia, Tennessee, Florida, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Connecticut, Delaware, New Jersey, New York, and Washington DC. The precautionary recall is being issued due to an isolated instance in which a package pulled by the Florida Department of Agriculture on 11/2/2020 from a retail store in Florida indicated the potential presence of Cyclospora. The products were harvested and packed nearly 4 weeks ago and should no longer be in commerce. The company has no knowledge of any illness reported or related to this product. @ https://www.fda.gov/safety/recalls-market-withdrawals-safety-alerts/shenandoah-growers-inc-issues-limited-voluntary-recall-certain-imported-organic-basil-because
