Our Mission

Edible Denver is a quarterly print publication that celebrates local farmers, artisans and producers. We share the stories of the dedicated people behind the food we eat with the goal of connecting our readers to them. By strengthening these connections, we hope to further promote a local food system that is not only delicious, but environmentally and economically sustainable.

Molly O'Brien

Editor in Chief

Molly believes that sharing a cup of coffee, a bite, a beer, a glass of wine, or a cocktail can be an encounter that brings a community together in the most human way. She brings this mission to Edible Denver, ensuring the publication serves as a voice for the individuals working “behind the scenes” to create meaningful culinary experiences, telling their stories with authenticity—from farmers and growers to chefs, mixologists, business owners, and beyond. With a “seasoned” career in the media world, including a stint as a public relations professional and nearly a decade as an international freelance travel and lifestyle writer, Molly is dedicated to uncovering the soul of Colorado’s most compelling culinary stories.

Gail Cayetano

Publisher

Gail has been an Edible Magazine fan long before joining the team; she’d hunt down a copy anytime she visited a new city, eager to see what local food stories were being told. Now, as Publisher of Edible Denver (and of Edible San Luis Obispo in California), she brings that same curiosity and enthusiasm to celebrating everything from the ingredients to the people that make Colorado’s food scene so vibrant. With a background in media and partnerships, Gail loves finding creative ways to connect readers, makers, and meals. A proud first-generation Filipina American, she also firmly believes that every dish is better with rice.

Ben Higgins

Partner

Ben is a familiar face to many—can you guess why? After his time on ABC’s The Bachelor, Ben built a career at the intersection of food and media from right here in Denver. He’s the co-founder of Generous Coffee, a for-purpose company using great coffee to tackle global social issues; a partner of The Culinary Creative Group, helping launch more than 20 restaurants worldwide; and host of several iHeartMedia programs. He can also school our team on coffee knowledge. Ben brings both heart and strategy to the table, serving as a key advisor on media partnerships and expansion.
