We are just THIRTEEN short days away from the release of my very first cookbook, The Half Baked Harvest Cookbook. I’ve now said this about a million times over, but I just cannot believe the book’s release is almost here! I am in shock, excited, nervous, jumping for joy (literally jumping up and down to release my anxiousness). Basically I’m feeling the full spectrum of emotions.
We have some really fun promotional events planned for the coming weeks (see next Tuesday’s post for another big announcement). And it all starts today, with the most exciting giveaway we’ve ever done over here at HBH.
To celebrate the book’s release I have been working with my publishing team at Clarkson Potter, as well as some of my favorite brands, Crate and Barrel, Land O’Lakes, Kroger, and Colorado Tourism, to put together a weekend retreat for a group of some of my favorite food and lifestyle influencer friends, and TWO of you readers. YES, two readers are going to be able to join me and 15 other bloggers here at my little barn in Colorado September 21-24, 2017.
It’s because of you readers that this cookbook is happening, and for that I truly could not be more grateful. If I could I would fly you all out here to celebrate the book’s release. Ahh…if only I could do that!
But seeing as that’s nearly impossible, I am happy to be able to bring two of you out for a fun weekend getaway and an all around great experience. There will be hiking, cheese making, cooking, horseback riding, tons of chatting, and of course so much good food!
UPDATE: GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED
TO ENTER: click on over here.
The giveaway will run through September 8th and we will randomly pick two winners. The retreat weekend is September 21-24, 2017.
Thank you all again for your continued support. I would not be where I am today without you guys, and I love you all…times a million…and then some.
Okay, Okay, now go enter! I want to meet you!

This is such a fun idea! A retreat with you would be a dream come true! 🙂

I’m so bummed that I’ll be out of the country for work on those dates so I can’t enter! But I hope with your new studio barn that you will do some workshops…And if so, I’ll definitely visit Colorado for that!
Thanks Sloane! Have a great trip!
Have you already decided which bloggers are coming out? I would love to meet you and go hiking!
Hey Karla, we have. So sorry, but hopefully there will be other retreats. Thank you!
Wishing so bad to be picked,so that I can finally meet you in person in action, cooking and photographing.!!
Thank you! GOOD LUCK! Announcing winners in the morning!
I’ve been waiting for years, SO EXCITED! My husband and my 2nd anniversary is Sept. 12th so I’m getting him this. We make your recipes often and send each other your Instagram posts when we want to try them. Basically, you’re our fav every since we tried your sweet potato and quinoa tacos. And because you love cheese as much as I do.
Wow, thank you SOOO MUCH!! I am flattered you are so excited for the book and love my recipes. Also, cheese for the win! 🙂
This is one of the best ideas! Would love to just shadow you cooking for hours to see how you approach cooking, finding the right spices and flavors. Entered!

Omg this would be a dream come true! And I’m already in Colorado, so you would save so much money ?❤️ I can’t wait for your book, I’ve been waiting for years!!! ?

Just did my preorder with Amazon. I’m amazed at how large your dishes are. Family style meals are the only way to cook. Would love to share mine with you.
Thank you or ordering!! Love me some family dishes! Would love to hear what you have made!
As an avid follower and foodie, I would love this so much! Your presentation and good eye, your energy, following your evolution, the construction of your barn, the recipes . . . I would love to inhale it all so I can come home with new inspiration to provide for my family and friends. My fingers are crossed real hard! Thank you, by the way, and I ordered 3 cookbooks – one for me, one for my daughter, and one for my good friend.
Awh thank you so much Jacqueline! Your so nice! I am so excited to meet new people!
Hope you, your daughter and friend love the book! (:
