We've never grown artichokes here, but I do know that they have some special chill requirements to flower as I recall. We got plants at some point, years ago to try it out, but in the chaos of a busy gardening season they were forgotten and didn't get the attention they needed to flower/produce.

I just did a bit of research, and I think they information you're looking for is here: https://savvygardening.com/growing-artichokes/

For canning jars, we've always picked them up at the local hardware store. We have so many at this point that I haven't really had to worry about it with the shortages in the past few years, but I do still occasionally see them there. This is the time of year to look, right when they come in and before they sell out for the season.
