Easy Care for Lasting Beauty

This wood care guide helps you keep your beautiful board thriving for years to come! Remember, dishwashers and extended soakings are a big no-no for wood. Here's the scoop:

Cleaning:

• Rinse and wash: After use, rinse away food debris and wash with warm soapy water. Avoid harsh chemicals.

• Dry, don't drown: Remove excess water with a cloth or paper towel after cleaning.

• Air it out: Stand your board upright on its side to air dry completely. Moisture is the enemy!

• Sterilize occasionally: Mix equal parts white vinegar and water for a natural sterilizing solution. Wipe it down and rinse well.

• Deep clean power: When needed, cut a lemon in half, rub both sides of the board, sprinkle with salt, and let it sit for 20 minutes. Wash and rinse thoroughly.

Maintenance and conditioning:

• Oil is your friend: To keep your board looking nourished and prevent drying, apply food-grade mineral oil whenever it starts to look dull.

• Regularity is key: Oiling regularly (think monthly or so) can significantly extend your board's life.

Environment:

• Location matters: Avoid placing wood near heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, which can cause cracking and warping.
