Colorado Local was created because we believe there’s more good happening around us than we’re being shown.
We’re here to help you find the places worth going, people worth knowing and stories worth sharing.
You’ll also see faith woven into these pages from time to time. That’s intentional. Faith is part of our founder’s life, and churches and faith communities are an important part of Colorado communities too.
Jessica Holland
FOUNDER + EDITOR, COLORADO LOCAL
Jessica Holland is a Colorado mom, entrepreneur, marketer and founder of Colorado Local. After years of constantly searching for things to do with her family, local businesses worth supporting, educational experiences for her girls, worship nights, community events and simply more GOOD news, she realized the resource she wanted didn’t really exist in one place. So she built it.
Jessica is also the founder of Holland Health Marketing, where she helps businesses grow through digital marketing, local visibility and community connection.
Her Christian faith is a big part of who she is and the way she sees the world. Colorado Local isn’t a faith-only publication, but you’ll absolutely find faith here, alongside stories about neighbors helping neighbors, churches serving their communities and people using what they have to make Colorado a little brighter.
She lives in Northern Colorado with her husband, two daughters and their very large Newfoundland, Mugsy.
Her mission for Colorado Local is pretty simple: help people get out, connect, support local and find more of the good happening right in front of us.
