Ottercreek Woodworks

From Tree to Table - A Build-your-own Board Experience

Rediscover nature at the award-winning From Tree to Table Experience while you gain knowledge about the trees of Ontario’s vast Carolinian Forest with woodworker David Schonberger on 2 acres of property. Gather around an open fire, sip on tea with freshly-foraged ingredients and engage your senses. Communicate with the roots of the forest as we discover fungal networks and reverence of the woodland ecosystem through smell, taste, touch and sight.

Enter the artisanal woodshop to create your own live-edge charcuterie board alongside David and choose your own piece of locally harvested lumber. Work with a variety of tools including David’s grandfather’s vintage handtools to shape your board. In addition to creating your own board in the woodshop, take home a taste of place with a handpicked selection of the local terroir including local artisan charcuterie, cheeses, preserves and more in our Tree to Table Feasting Box. You’ll have everything you need for your first charcuterie feast on your new board at home! Groups of 4-6 have the option to choose a Chef curated lunch option in lieu of the Feasting Box. Inside the woodshop, you’ll also explore Ottercreek Woodworks’ studio of handcrafted boards, personalize your work and learn how to use your new charcuterie board at home to enjoy with loved ones.
