What You'll Learn:

Growing Artichokes: Discover the secrets of growing artichokes in your own garden, even in climates that aren't typically suitable for this Mediterranean native. Sandy will share her personal experiences and tips on cultivating artichokes, drawing on their origins in the dry, mild-wintered Mediterranean region. While commercial farms in California thrive with artichokes and other Mediterranean plants like olives, learn how it might be possible to grow them even in less favorable climates like Montana.

Cooking with Artichokes: Kelly will demonstrate how to create a delicious artichoke and fontina cheese pizza, perfect for your next garden-to-table meal. This hands-on cooking segment will show you how to make the most of your homegrown artichokes.
