My cutting boards are all made from natural wood products. Like anything made from wood, there is the possibility of changes. The wood I use has been dried to acceptable levels. Changes in humidity and temperature can have an impact on longevity. With each board, I provide "board butter". It is made with food safe mineral oil and bees wax. Whenever your board begins looking dry or after a couple uses, wipe the board butter onto the cutting surface with a dry cloth. It doesn't hurt to wipe the sides and bottom on occasion as well.

The instructions below provide guidance on how to improve the life of your cutting board.
