Description
I wrote this beginner gardening book, Harvesting Joy, because I know how intimidating gardening can seem when you’re just starting out. This beginner gardening book was written to help you grow food with confidence, joy, and peace — especially in small spaces or cold climates. Written by lifestyle creator and garden enthusiast Andrea Harvey (WindyCityPeach), this guide brings a little bit of humor and practicality to help a beginner grow their first garden or improve their gardening skills. Whether you are setting up a large raised bed or using a smaller space off of your balcony, this guide breaks gardening down into simple digestible steps!
In this book you will learn how to:
- Set Your Foundation for Growth
- Nurture Your Garden (including watering 101)
- Grow Beginner Friendly Fruits and Vegetables
- Deal with Pests
- And so much more!
Harvesting Joy is more than just a beginner gardening book — it’s a soulful guide to growing with confidence, care, and joy.

Harvesting Joy is exactly what I needed as a beginner gardener. Andrea makes everything feel doable—even for someone with zero gardening experience. The tips are practical, the illustrations are beautiful (and melanated!), and I love that it’s not just a “how-to”—it’s a whole vibe. I’ve already started planning my garden, and for the first time, I feel confident!
