What's inside

About WoodForChef
WoodForChef is a Canadian maker whose Mizu board is a clean, minimalist maple board sold on its own site and, as a set, through Grove Collaborative. The brand states the maple is FSC-certified North American hardwood and that each board arrives pre-seasoned with a mineral-oil-and-beeswax finish, described as already food-safe. It is made in Canada. Two details keep this at partial confidence: the FSC claim is not backed by a published license number we could confirm in the FSC registry, so we list it as a brand statement, and the maker does not name the adhesive used to build the board. The Grove listing and the brand's own page also differ slightly on grain type and finish, which is worth knowing if the details matter to you.
