vegetarian food from the Driftless region

Established by Sarah Cousins and Hannah Garry in 2019, Blazing Star came from a desire to see more vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free dining options in Decorah that celebrated the amazing farmers in the region. What started off as a small event catering business soon expanded to weekly pop-ups featuring seasonal rice bowls, salads and baked goods.

In 2022 we moved into our own storefront in downtown Decorah. Our full menu rotates seasonally and features several vegan and gluten free options.
