http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artichoke

"The peak season for artichoke harvesting is the spring, but they
continue to be harvested throughout the summer, with another peak period
in mid autumn."

My wife came back from Costco recently with a four pack of huge
artichokes. I don't know what she paid. Almost 100% of commercial
artichokes in the US come from California.
