Thistle & Mint

Thistle & Mint We are a catering and personal chef company that works to bring the cuisine of Colorado to you.

Thistle & Mint is owned and operated by Chef Jared and his wife Olivia. With a love for Colorado and the Rocky Mountain region, Thistle & Mint celebrates the resources, beauty and the history of the land around us through food. We work to learn more about how Colorado’s cuisine has been shaped over time by rediscovering lost traditions. We find ways to use native but uncommon ingredients (like thistle) while not leaving out some of the favorites (such as mint).

Our Story

“I am the Chef and Owner of Thistle and Mint, a personal chef and small event catering business. I love the beauty of Colorado and the Rocky Mountains. This is why my focus is on cuisine that is made of ingredients that are sourced locally from farmers and growers that are located here as well as those that are available naturally in the wild. I grow some things and forage for items too. I am committed to making buzz-words like " Hyper-local" and " Farm-to-table" mean something more than just things people say to loosely describe a type of cuisine. My menu is only made up of things that can actually be found in Colorado and the Rocky Mountains and it really is seasonal, too.”
