Caring for your board will keep it in working condition for years to come. All boards receive multiple coats of food grade mineral oil before getting a seal coat of food grade paste wax before I ship them.

These boards are not dishwasher safe and cannot soak in water. It’s best to wash them off with soapy water, rinse and dry off. I stand them vertically afterwards for faster drying times. While I do my best to seal them over time that seal will fade and water can get in. Water will expand the wood adding stress that will lead to cracking.

A good practice is to recoat them with butcher block or cutting board mineral oils when they get dull and worn then rub on a coat of food safe paste wax to restore the sheen and luster. A very well used board might benefit from a light sanding before oiling.
