Growing &Harvest

Ocean Mist Farms artichokes are grown year-round in multiple growing regions throughout California. However, Ocean Mist Farms' incredibly rare purple artichoke variety is only available seasonally for a limited amount of time. Our leading team of experts carefully developed this vibrant, rare artichoke with the same Gold Standard quality appearance, taste, and eating experience standards Ocean Mist Farms is recognized for.

Every artichoke plant is hand-harvested up to 30 times per season which allows our harvest crews to carefully select artichokes that fit Ocean Mist Farms’ stringent quality standards.

Artichokes are removed from the plant by slicing the stalk just below the base of the artichoke, leaving an edible stem attached.
