Ambleside Farm

Ambleside Farm is a growing vegetable and fruit farm. Our guiding principles are that the best food is always produced locally in accordance with the seasons and sold directly to you by us! We can then give you fresh food you require at the best value.

Local availability — We sell at the Dubuque Farmers’ Market on Saturdays, Dyersville Farmers’ Market on Thursdays, and the Monticello Farmers’ Market on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Direct sales are also available.

Seasonal — During our main crop season we grow berries, lettuce, spinach, tomatoes, eggplants, peppers, onions, leeks, garlic, carrots, radishes, beets, fennel, celery, beans, peas, zucchini, broccoli, cabbage, kale, brussel sprouts, cucumbers, melons, butternut squash and potatoes. We only grow the best tasting varieties and harvest at the peak of ripeness. During the winter we grow greens in an unheated greenhouse. We also offer free-range eggs.

Direct — We don’t want to live with or eat chemicals so we don’t expect you to. What you see is what you can eat! We are proud of our fruit and vegetable produce. Our produce is grown utilizing organic principles and sustainable agricultural practices. We compost, use green manure, and mulch to sustain our soil. To protect the environment we use no chemicals. We pass these ideals directly to the customers. We are proud of our produce!
