Care & Maintenance
To preserve the natural beauty and longevity of the maple wood, hand wash the board with mild soap and warm water after use, then dry thoroughly before storing.

Regular conditioning with a food-safe cutting board oil or conditioner will help maintain the wood's appearance, minimize drying, and extend its working life.
