Board Care Instructions

Serving and cutting boards are heirlooms that can last generations if cared for properly.  Please consider the following when caring for your boards:

DO NOT

  • Put me in the dishwasher or submerge/soak me in water.  The heat and excess water could make me warp.
  • Set hot dishes on me.  I'm not a trivet! Prolonged exposure to heat could cause me damage.  
  • Use bleach on me. It can stain me and cause excessive dryness.

DO

  • Wash me by hand with a sponge/wash cloth and mild dish detergent.
  • Dry me with a towel immediately, and set me up on my end or side to air dry overnight.  Letting me dry flat can cause uneven drying, which could cause me to warp!
  • You can sanitize me with white vinegar or lemon if needed. Make sure I am dried as per the instructions above if you do.
  • Apply board butter to me as needed.  If I look dry, just buff some in with a towel, let it sit for about 30 minutes, then buff it back off in a circular motion.
