Product Care

Well maintained wooden wares will last for generations. Here are some recommended habits and tips to properly care for your wooden kitchenware.

DO NOT:

- Put in dishwasher, microwave, or oven.

- Use olive oil, vegetable oil, or other oils for maintaining your piece that will go rancid in time.

- Submerge or soak in water extendedly. 

- Wash pieces with cracks. Pieces with cracks are not intended for contact with food or water, and should be display pieces only.

DO:

- Hand wash with (preferably warm) water only. If needed, you can use a pinch of dish soap, but soap will strip the oils from the wood and will require more frequent maintenance.

- Use a soft dish brush or dish pad.

- Rinse the surface and dry off the excess water with a towel. Set out to fully dry where airflow can reach all sides to prevent warping and cracks.

- In general, if you wash your piece once a day, maintain it at least once a week. If you wash your piece once a week, maintain it at least once a month. 

- Apply maintenance oil or wax to the piece as soon as it begins to lose color and feel dried out. Any mineral oil, beeswax, or other cutting board care product will do. We like to use a product called Wood Wax from Real Milk Paint Co for all of our wood care and maintenance. Amazon link listed below:
