Growing and Eating Artichokes

Artichoke farmers reveal why you shouldn’t be intimidated by this thorny but delicious crop. Artichokes may be a popular dish in California – and in fact, were named the Official State Vegetable in 2013 – but they still remain a mystery to many people outside the Golden State. We meet farmers from Ocean Mist who show you how to eat this unique vegetable.
