“We started selling at farmers' markets and trade shows. That's when we saw first-hand that our boards make people happy. They can't believe they are hand-cut.”

Husband-and-wife team Mike Pararas and Kim Strassner know their way around knives. They both love to cook for their three kids and for guests—Mike on the grill, Kim in the kitchen—and they channel that passion into the cutting boards they create in their Baltimore studio.
