Castroville is indeed "The Artichoke Capital of the World."
Castroville is a small town just north of Monterey in central California.
Artichokes grow well in this cool,
summer-dry (= Mediterranean) climate.

A very obscure bit of trivia--Marilyn Monroe was once
(reportedly) Castroville's Artichoke Queen.
