The Rustic Dish

Projects

The Rustic Dish was founded by Lee and Jeff over a coffee in the garden on a very fine Spring morning. We now manufacturer, retail and distribute our own beautiful olive wood rustic cheese, chopping and presentation boards, and other utensils and accessories. We are based in the UK, with another office in Germany, but sell all over the world. 

We are very proud of our company policy on sourcing wood taken only from very old olive trees that have come to the end of their natural fruiting life. This allows the olive farmers of North Africa  to sell, rather than discard, this wood which then gives them the much needed funds to purchase new, younger, more productive trees. This then keeps their family, and the local community, in much needed employment in some of the poorest regions in the world.

I bought a olive wood chopping board and olive wood pestle and mortar from The Rustic Dish, as a wedding present. Both items arrived quickly, were well packaged and look absolutely beautiful. Really great quality items but this isn't the whole story. I contacted The Rustic Dish before I ordered to ask if I could buy an extra pestle (on its own) to add to my order, as I have lost the pestle for my own olive wood mortar. Jody always replied quickly and was really friendly. After about 24 hours from my request, she replied to say they were happy to include an extra pestle with no additional charge. THIS is the kind of company The Rustic Dish is. You can't get better customer service than this. Don't hesitate to buy from them. They are absolutely top quality in every department - quality of goods, customer service, delivery, communications.... I will definitely be buying again. Thanks Jody and the team at TRD.
