Celebrate the artichoke--"The Heart of the Harvest,” as we celebrate 62 years of all things artichokes — the official vegetable of California and Monterey County. Come out and enjoy great weather and fun for the whole family — featuring local chef demonstrations, artichoke-inspired delicious food, fantastic local musical entertainment, wine tasting, arts & crafts booths, our famous farmer’s market, an artichoke agricultural exhibit, a 5K family fun run, arts & crafts, and more fun and contests!
For many years, the Artichoke Festival has been dedicated to informing and exciting festival attendees about the unique qualities of artichokes including farming, harvesting, and preparation, to demonstrate how the artichoke industry has influenced the history of Monterey County. The purpose of the Artichoke Festival remains the same, with an emphasis on giving back to the young people of our community. Proceeds from this event are used to support our nonprofit partners and many other wonderful nonprofit community organizations and activities that align with our organization’s mission.
