Ambrose Family Farm
Growing food. Growing Family. Growing community.

Community Supported Agriculture creates a meaningful partnership between local farmers and the families they feed.
When you join our CSA, you invest in a “share” of Ambrose Family Farm’s seasonal harvest—grown with the safest, most natural methods we can practice.
Your membership supports the farm upfront, helping us plan, plant, and grow with you in mind. In return, you receive the freshest, highest-quality, and widest variety of sustainably grown produce each week.
CSA membership also helps protect the future of local family farms by ensuring fair returns for the work, risk, and care that go into every crop.
Farming requires time, planning, and patience.
From ordering seeds and mapping planting schedules to tending seedlings and harvesting at peak flavor, every step is time consuming. Some crops—like arugula, radishes, and baby lettuce mixes—can grow from seed to harvest in about 25 days. Others—like beets, carrots, and winter squash—take 90 to 120 days to mature.
Early enrollment helps us to plan properly for the season.
CSA membership also means sharing in the realities of farming.
There are risks for you, just as there are for us: excessive rain, hail, unexpected frost or freeze, drought, wind-borne disease, or unfamiliar pests. A farmer’s closest partner is Mother Nature—and she is wonderfully generous, but often unpredictable.
When harvests are abundant, you share in that abundance. When challenges arise, we weather them together.
Our CSA includes the fruits and vegetables we grow—nothing more We do not source producef or fruit from elsewhere (Optional add-ons like eggs or meats are out-sourced.)
Because we grow seasonally, availability changes throughout the year:
We can’t grow lettuce in the heat of summer nor can we can grow tomatoes in the winter. Members should expect to supplement their share with out-of-season items if desired.
Becoming a member of any CSA is a meaningful commitment to fresh, local food, your family’s well-being, and the long-term strength of your community and its farms. It’s a relationship built on trust, honesty, and moving together with the rhythm of Nature.
If you’re accustomed to grocery stores offering everything all the time, transitioning to seasonal eating can take a little adjustment. A CSA share reflects what’s growing here, now — not what’s being shipped from across the globe.
It may surprise you that in our area tomatoes typically ripen in June and strawberries are ready as early as March. Learning the rhythm of the seasons is part of the CSA experience — and we’re always happy to share what’s coming, what’s peaking, and what’s next.
