Having stumbled upon the Eco store at the Taste Festival in Centennial Park we were all a bit confused as to the chopping boards. But as soon as we got closer and the scent of the blocks snuck up our noses, we were drawn in likes flies to fly paper.
As Rebecca explained, the wood was worked by herself and her mother all the way from Byron. It was Camphor Laurel wood, which is a renewable resource from the Northern Rivers. Did you know camphor laurel is a natural antibacterial? I didn't. Now you know too!
At any rate, the smell of the camphor and the eucalyptus was enough to make me go back at the end of the night before heading home and pick up 2 chopping boards.
They smell fantastic and the wood has some really love shapes and knots to the actual boards. You can't say no.
Definitely worth buying from this family run business if you like wooden chopping blocks! read more
