Caring for Your Wooden Chopping Board: A Ritual of Preservation
In a world that moves quickly, your wooden chopping board invites you to slow down. It’s more than a kitchen accessory, it’s a companion to your daily rituals, a keeper of meals shared and memories made. With a little care, it will serve you beautifully for years to come.
Daily Care: Keep It Simple, Keep It Dry
After use, rinse your board under cool running water. Avoid soaking it or placing it in the dishwasher, wood is porous and sensitive to prolonged moisture. Gently pat dry and allow it to air dry fully before storing. A dry board is a happy board.

Monthly Refresh: Nature’s Cleanser
Once a month, treat your board to a natural cleanse. Sprinkle coarse salt across its surface and rub it down with half a lemon. This simple ritual lifts lingering odors and restores freshness, all without harsh chemicals.

Seasonal Nourishment: Oil & Wax
Depending on how often you use your board, nourish it a few times a year with food-grade mineral oil or beeswax. This helps prevent cracking, enhances its natural grain, and keeps it feeling smooth to the touch. Apply with a soft cloth, let it soak in overnight, and buff gently the next day. It’s a quiet act of care, like polishing a memory.

Each board is handcrafted with care in our chapel workshop, using sustainably sourced timber and timeless techniques. Caring for it is an extension of our shared values, beauty, longevity, and mindful living.”
