Tapping into nearly 100 years of cultivation experience, Ocean Mist Farms developed a proprietary, seasonal purple artichoke, selected for its superior flavor and appearance. The tender, meaty leaves have vibrant purple coloring and a rich, earthy artichoke flavor, mimicking the look and flavor of a Mediterranean old-world variety. When cooked, it may transform into shades of green and purple, depending on seasoning and the cooking method. This vibrant artichoke is only available once a year, and for a very limited time.
