This process is essential for protecting the wood and showing off just how damn beautiful the wood is.
I recommend oiling your board once a year to once a month, depending on use, or when it is feeling dry. Several pals have asked about what I use, or what they ought to use, so with the help of Bee Love Honey I am making jars available to you! They will be available at Renegade Craft Fair, and then online mid November.

Bee Love
One of the best moments in making my boards is The Reveal. When (I think) I've spent enough time with a piece I condition the wood with a magic blend of Taylor Mountain bees wax and oil.

Fire Cider
The is my favorite time of year. Late summer. Early Autumn. Tomatoes are at their sweetest, the sky is moody, the light is gold... I could wax poetic about Autumn all day. It's also the time of year I often get sick.
In preparation I am making Fire Cider. This is one of my favorite remedies and SO easy!
You put warming immune boosting ingredients into a jar, cover with apple cider vinegar, and let em chill out for a month (well shake em up every day or so), strain, add honey. Decide how much by taste. It should be warm, strong, spicy, and sweet.
I grate horseradish, ginger, and turmeric. Chop onions, garlic, and hot peppers. I threw in a cinnamon stick for good measure.
Take a spoonful everyday throughout the winter, or a shot as soon as you start to feel down. Add it to juice. Make it your own.
Watch how our sister witch makes hers.
