Seabert Farms
A century of farming doesn't happen by accident — it happens by dedication, passed down from one generation to the next.
Seabert Farms is a fifth-generation family farm located in Cambria, Niagara County, where the Seabert family has been working the same land for over 100 years. That kind of multigenerational commitment to a place and a craft is increasingly rare — and it shows in everything the farm produces.
Owner Ken Seabert carries on a legacy that stretches back through four generations before him, bringing the same work ethic and love of the land to every season. And when it comes to variety, Seabert Farms doesn't do things in half measures. The farm predominantly grows vegetables but offers an impressive depth of selection — squash alone comes in ten different varieties. Sweet corn, winter squash, fresh seasonal fruits, and an ever-rotating lineup of produce round out a harvest that keeps customers coming back week after week.
Thoughtful planning is central to how Seabert Farms operates. Crops are planted in rotation and staggered to ensure a continuous harvest throughout the season — a practice that reflects both smart farming and a genuine commitment to providing customers with fresh, locally grown produce for as long as the season allows.
Beyond vegetables, Seabert Farms offers over 40 combinations of hanging baskets, potted annuals, and more than 15 varieties of potted herbs and vegetable plants — making it a destination for home gardeners and families alike. The farm operates from early February through Thanksgiving, and its community-supported agriculture membership gives customers a reliable weekly connection to some of the freshest, most carefully tended produce in Western New York.
For five generations, the Seabert family has shown up for their community — tending the land, growing the food, and doing it with the quiet pride of people who know that good farming is its own reward.
Selection and Storage
- Choose collards with firm leaves that are deep green with no yellow or brown spots.
- Smaller leaves are more tender and have a milder flavor.
- Store collards in a sealed plastic bag in the refrigerator for 3-5 days.
- Rinse leaves before making a snack or meal.
Preparation
Collards can be prepared the same way you prepare other greens like spinach, kale, turnip greens or mustard greens.
To start, cut the collards into thin strips, removing the thick middle stalk.
- Sauté them! Sauté collards in olive oil with onions, garlic and red pepper flakes. Serve as a side dish.
- Sauce them! Cut the collard leaves in half and slice into thin strips. Add them to pasta with tomato sauce or bean soups.
- Stuff them! Mix collards and chicken sausage into rice for a great stuffing for bell peppers or tomatoes.
Collard Green Recipes:
We like to make a version of this with chicken and use lots of lemon instead of sour cream!

1 small garlic clove, minced
1 large bunch collard greens, washed, tough stems removed, leaves torn into large pieces
