Charles Seabrook

Charles Franklin Seabrook, known professionally as C.F. Seabrook, (28 May 1881 – 1964) was a business man and owner of Seabrook Farms, a family-owned frozen vegetable packing plant in New Jersey that at one point was the largest irrigated truck farm in the world. Seabrook Farms became famous for recruiting Japanese Americans from internment camps beginning in January 1944 and other immigrants displaced from World War II. He was nicknamed the Henry Ford of agriculture by B.C. Forbes, the founder of Forbes magazine, and the town of Seabrook, New Jersey is named after him.
