Frequently asked questions

❤️ Love Your Board. It Will Last a Lifetime.

This board was handcrafted for you. Finish is USA-made, ultra-pure, FDA Food Contact Safe — Certified Vegetarian by the American Vegetarian Association.

01 How do I clean my board after each use?

Scrub with a sponge and dish detergent under hot water after every use. Always store your board on its edge — never flat — to allow airflow and prevent warping.

02 Can I put my board in the dishwasher?

Never. Do not place your board in a dishwasher or submerge it in water. Heat and prolonged moisture will warp or crack the wood and significantly shorten its life.

03 How do I disinfect my board?

Use a diluted bleach solution per FDA guidelines: one tablespoon of bleach per gallon of water. Flood the clean surface, let it stand for several minutes, then rinse thoroughly and dry.

04 How do I remove odors from my board?

Coat the surface in coarse sea salt and work a halved lemon across the board while juicing it into the salt. Let it rest 5–10 minutes, then wipe clean with a damp cloth. The salt draws out moisture and odors; the lemon naturally deodorizes.

05 How often should I oil my board?

Oil regularly — weekly for heavy-use boards, monthly or seasonally for occasional use. Regular oiling keeps the wood hydrated, prevents cracking, and maintains the board's natural beauty. A well-loved board will last for years.

06 Is the finish food-safe?

Yes. The finish is USA-made, ultra-pure, and FDA Food Contact Safe — Certified Vegetarian by the American Vegetarian Association. It is safe for contact with all food types.

07 Why does my board look slightly imperfect?

Intentional natural variations are a hallmark of handcrafted work. No two boards are identical — these imperfections reflect the organic character of real wood and the hands that shaped it.

08 How long will my board last?

With proper care — regular cleaning, no dishwasher, and routine oiling — your board is designed to last a lifetime. Treat it with love and it will serve you for generations.

Much ❤️ Love
