Where do we get our wood?Updated a year ago
Hey everyone, Eric here from Virginia Boys Kitchens! Let's talk a bit about where our materials come from because it's something we're really proud of. Our walnut wood? Sourced right from the heart of the Midwest, primarily from Wisconsin and Minnesota. This wood is known for its deep, rich tones and exceptional durability—perfect for your kitchen.
And our maple? It doesn’t travel far either. We get it straight from the lush forests of New England, mostly from Vermont. Maple’s lighter color and tough resilience make it ideal for a cutting board that sees daily use.
Why It Matters We choose these regions not only for the quality of their wood but also to keep our supply chain as local as possible. This way, we support local forestry practices and ensure we’re getting the best materials for our products. When you buy one of our cutting boards, you’re getting a piece of American heritage crafted with care and expertise.
So, next time you’re prepping dinner on one of our boards, remember it’s not just any wood under your knife—it’s wood with a story, chosen for its beauty, sustainability, and quality.
Catch you later, Eric
