Digteren Ambrosius Stub blev født 17. maj 1705 og døde d. 15. juli 1758. Han var søn af enskrædder. Via faderens kontakt til adelen fik han mulighed for at studere teologi på Københavns Universitet. Men efter 10 års studier vendte han tilbage til Fyn uden en afsluttende eksamen. Han arbejde blandt andet som huspoet på Valdemar slot. Hans mest kendte dig er "Den kiedsom Vinter gik sin Gang" som først blev udgivet 13 år efter hans død. langt de fleste af hans digte blev ligeledes udgivet efter hans død.
Dette smukke, 400 år gamle egetræ er kendt som Ambrosius egn, da han efter sigende holdt af at sidde ved foden af træet og læse og skrive.
