- We recommend applying a liberal amount of cutting board oil to dry wood with either a brush or clean cloth, allowing the oil to absorb overnight. Wipe off any excess with a clean cloth or paper towel and clean with soap and water. After 2-3 applications, the cutting boards will become more resilient to normal use and require less frequent oiling.

- Ingredients: Food Grade Cold Pressed Lemon Essential Oil, Food Grade White Mineral Oil and Bee Propolis. Do not use if you are allergic to either fruits, citrus or bee products

Wood shaped on a lathe always leaves its mark with shavings on the ground and an fragrance distinctive of the wood type. The smell of wood is often unappreciated by most people, but to the craftsman these subtle attributes create the foundation for delight and discovery. I spend most of my ...
