2nd Annual GET SAUCED:
A hot sauce and more festival!

a hot sauce festival featuring local sauce makers, food and drink, handmade goods, and more! All vendors are from the PNW - as close as your neighbors in Mountlake Terrace and as far as Bellingham, Walla Walla, and Portland, OR!

Mountlake Terrace has a Light Rail Station! Get Sauced is only about ½ mile, or a 10 minute walk, from the Light Rail station!

Frequently Asked Questions

This is separate for each vendor. Nearly all take cards, only some take cash.

Some also have Venmo or PayPal options as well.
Keep scrolling! There’s a whole vendor list, divided out by product category, with links to each vendor’s website or social media.
Sometimes vendors change last minute, but the website will be as up to date as possible so you can plan accordingly.
I am always seeking volunteers! If you’re interested and available on the day of the market, please email me, Sarah [hello@makinglocal.com], to coordinate on a time slot that works for your schedule!
Example volunteer tasks:
- helping vendors locate their booth spot during load in [8am-10am]
- covering restroom / food breaks for vendors by watching their booth [11am-3pm]
- supporting load out and clean up by moving trash bins, monitoring traffic flow of vendor vehicles, and collapsing tents, etc. [3:30pm-5:00pm]
If a student* needs community service hours, this is a great opportunity! I’m happy to sign off a form with description of the work or time volunteering. *If the student is under 18, for liability purposes, I just need a parent/guardian permission slip along with it.

There ample free street parking surrounding the market and in the residential areas just a block or two away.
There are bus transit stops within a few blocks of the festival, and, we’re only about ½ mile from the MLT Light Rail Station [just a 10 minute walk].
This is an outdoor market and pets are allowed and welcomed! Please make sure that your pets are:
- on leash or contained (backpack, stroller, etc)
- not causing a scene or barking excessively
- bring your own water, poo bags, and please be respectful of vendor’s property, tents, tablecloths, etc.
Plus! We always have fun pet vendors with treats, accessories, toys, and more!
This festival strives to be compliant and welcoming to strollers, wheel chairs, and other mobility needs! If you feel your needs aren’t met, please let Sarah, the event host, know via email so she can make adjustments and improvements.
The site is relatively flat, with some slopes from parking areas. However, the main market area is a grassy/gravelly lot that may be a little more challenging for some wheels.
