Discover the craftsmanship and natural beauty of Roots To Table cutting boards. Each board is made from sustainably sourced North American hardwood and handcrafted in our Sault Ste Marie workshop. These boards are built for everyday use, memorable meals, and thoughtful gifting. Whether you are preparing a family dinner or surprising someone with a personalized keepsake, your board becomes part of the moments that matter most.
Choose from a collection of edge grain and end grain boards in hard maple or rich walnut. Each board is finished with a long mineral oil soak and our handcrafted board butter for lasting protection and a soft natural sheen. Every board can be personalized with names, dates or meaningful messages to create a gift that feels truly special.
Our cutting boards are available in four versatile sizes from small everyday boards to large professional carving boards. The Homestead series in the 18 by 16 size is available in your choice of a 1.25 inch or 2 inch thickness, offering a substantial feel for larger kitchen tasks.
The Homestead series features edge grain construction which highlights the natural linear pattern of hard maple. This style is durable, practical for daily chopping and beautifully showcases the character of the wood.
All edge grain boards are made from solid hard maple. End grain boards are available in maple or walnut in select sizes for those who want a premium butcher block experience.
Select boards can include a juice groove. This shallow channel is designed to collect liquids from carving meats or cutting juicy fruits and vegetables. It keeps your counters clean and makes meal preparation more efficient.
Some sizes include discreet finger grips on each end of the board. These are carved with comfort in mind, making it easy to lift, carry or serve.
Every board is fully reversible. Many customers use one side for cutting and chopping and reserve the other for serving, styling or display.
Each board receives a full twenty four hour mineral oil soak followed by an application of our handcrafted board butter. This process nourishes the wood, protects the fibres and brings out its natural beauty.
We do not use epoxy in any of our cutting boards. Our boards are crafted entirely from solid hardwood for long lasting performance during heavy chopping and daily use.
The Homestead series embodies practicality, style and thoughtful craftsmanship. It brings together everything we value at Roots to Table, making these boards a dependable and beautiful part of your kitchen.
Transform your board into a meaningful keepsake. Add custom engraving with names, dates, monograms or messages. Every engraving is carved with care to complement the natural grain of the wood.
If you request a design proof, we will send it to you by email. Please check your inbox and junk folder to avoid delays.
Every kitchen is unique, which is why we offer a selection of sizes to fit your space and cooking style. All edge grain boards are made from solid hard maple. End grain boards are available in both maple and walnut.
