FAQ

We buy our wood direct from a saw mill/distributor in Springdale, Arkansas. For boards and blocks, we will buy at least #1 Common S1S or S2S and finish the lumber ourselves onsite. For furniture, we will buy at least Select S1S or S2S and again finish ourselves (we will always source the right quality wood, as specified by the customer).

Per our saw mill/distributor, our typical wood species come from the following areas:

Northern Hard Maple - Northern Midwest and Canada

Walnut - Missouri, Iowa, Indiana

Western Red Alder - Pacific Northwest

Appalachian Red Oak - Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York

With proper care, your product should last a lifetime.

After each use, wipe your board or block down with a soapy cloth and rise with hit water. Dry immediately with a soft towel or place on its edge to air dry. Avoid submerging your board or block in water and using abrasive scrub pads. Never put your board or block in the dishwasher, IT IS NOT DISHWASHER SAFE.

You can disinfect your board using a mixture of white vinegar and water or diluted chlorine bleach. For white vinegar, dilute one part white vinegar to five parts water. For bleach, dilute one teaspoon of chlorine bleach to one quart of water. Rinse your board thoroughly afterwards.

Once a month, or more often for heavy use, refresh your board or block with a healthy coat of high quality mineral oil.
