The raw lumber we use is sustainably gathered from trees that have fallen for natural reasons, harvested from family land primarily in Florida and also throughout the southeastern US. The timber is rough cut by Dad using a chainsaw mill, then we use a jig saw and plane before we finish each unique piece by hand sanding. When the boards are glossy smooth to the touch, they are sealed with a non-toxic food-grade butcher block finishing oil. We do not use any stains. Each finished piece of wood features its own natural grain and color.
Kiker Brothers' Boards have a variety of uses including hors d'oeuvres, sushi, cheese and crackers, bread, candles, center pieces, and trivets -- yes, they are heat resistant.
These treasures are natural pieces of Florida history drawn from our land, provided to beautifully grace any table. Each of these functional pieces of art represents hours of labor and love...the perfect gift.
