Pistachio growers are farmers who cultivate the pistachio tree, known for its edible seeds. These trees thrive in warm, dry climates, making regions like California, Iran, and Turkey ideal for their growth. The cultivation process involves planting, nurturing, and harvesting the trees, which can take several years to produce nuts. The pistachio harvest typically occurs in late summer to early fall. Growers must carefully monitor the trees for pests and diseases to ensure a healthy crop. Once harvested, the nuts are processed and packaged for sale, contributing to the global demand for this popular snack.
