Welcome to Woodside Kitchen where every flavor-filled sauce is an invitation to sit at our table.

We are the Strites, an ordinary family with an extra-ordinary chromosome. When our third son Wade was born with Down syndrome, our community expanded globally, and so did our vision. Believing that a better world begins at home, we began to build a business with room for individuals with special needs to work with us. Today Wade and his friends are a valued part of our business. Every bottle of sauce we sell is our commitment to them and to a world with a table big enough for everyone.

Thank you for joining us. We’re so glad you’re here.

How it Works

We prioritize quality and care, ensuring every product reflects our values. Each bottle is a testament to our dedication to hope, love, community, and fine food. From bold BBQ sauces to zesty dressings, Woodside Kitchen combines fresh ingredients with a passion for excellence. Our products not only taste great but also serve as a reminder of the incredible things that happen when love and purpose come together.

At Woodside Kitchen, our process creates products that combine quality craftsmanship with efficient production methods. Using fresh, high-quality ingredients, each recipe is carefully developed to deliver exceptional flavor and visual appeal. In our modern production facility, high tech filling & packaging equipment play a key role in ensuring precision and consistency. These machines are used to fill, seal, and label each bottle, maintaining the highest standards of hygiene and efficiency.

This semi-automated process allows the team to effectively complete our daily and weekly product batches while preserving the homemade quality that defines our offerings. Woodside Kitchen also provides meaningful employment opportunities for individuals with Down syndrome and other special needs. This inclusive workplace fosters a sense of pride and accomplishment for all employees. Every bottle is a testament to our dedication to creating fresh, flavorful sauces and dressings that enhance any meal while celebrating the power of inclusion and community.
