Proudly Made in Canada (Margaree, Nova Scotia)
We Are 'End-Grain' Cutting Boards Specialists
Founded in 2003, Larch Wood Canada makes Premium Cutting Boards that are as much about the artistry and craftsmanship as the functionality and sustainability.
Larch Wood Canada is nestled along the Margaree River and we feel privileged to live, work, and raise our families on Cape Breton Island, Canada. Voted one of world's top island destinations, Cape Breton Island continues to inspire visitors with its gorgeous coastline, wonderful natural areas and diverse culture.
We specialize in creating beautiful 'end-grain' cutting boards handmade from eastern Canadian larch (Larix laricina). Also known locally as tamarack and juniper, we source this renewable resource from sustainably managed local woodlots.
The beauty and durability of the end grain Larch makes these boards a versatile choice for both cutting and presentation.
Self-Healing Surface
The durable self-healing end grain butcher block construction of our products provides a smooth, impact-resistant, cutting action that is kind to knives - making our cutting boards a practical choice for chefs in busy commercial kitchens or for daily use at home.
Our boards are self-healing and long-lasting. The vertically aligned wood fibers separate to accept the knife and close up after cutting. Remember to condition your board on a regular basis to keep the fibers flexible.
The flexible end grain will self-cleanse and squeeze out any excess color, bacteria, or food, and the rubber feet prevent moisture from getting trapped. Besides its magical healing properties - the board has intricate gradients and patterns that you'll enjoy by cutting across the growth rings.
Our heirloom quality boards are also easy on knives and resists nicks and gouges. Our customers, including world renowned chefs, praise the density of our "end-grain" design because it absorbs the impact of blades and even helps keep them sharp.
With the proper care, a Larch Wood Canada cutting board is built to last for many years to come.
