I think pistachio plants are trees, so that would mean the nut is harvested above ground.
I do know that pistachio nuts are usually dyed or bleached, unless they are organic.

"The pistachio is a broad, bushy, deciduous tree which grows slowly to a height and spread of 25 to 30 feet, with one or several trunks. The trees are inclined to spread and droop, and may initially need staking. Their open habit and attractive foliage make them valuable ornamentals. Under favorable conditions pistachio trees live and produce for centuries."
