Welcome to Ottercreek Woodworks
Leader in one of a kind Charcuterie Boards in Canada
Born and raised in Tillsonburg, Ontario with a hard work ethic and love for wood and trees, it was only natural that David Schonberger would pursue carpentry as a profession. As a licensed carpenter, David grew tired of the everyday hustle and bustle of the job site. So, accompanied with his natural talent in working with his hands and a healthy supply of unique wood, David set out to share the natural beauty of wood with all he meets.
Using only local hardwoods, the Ottercreek Woodworks woodshop is a busy place full of vision, creation and of course sawdust. Each piece of wood that passes through the shop is carefully selected for grains, knots, and other character features. David now has his wood crafts all over the world!

Upcoming Experiences
Our 2020 event dates are now available for booking.
Enjoy a guided walk inside an Ontario Carolinian Forest with woodworker David Schonberger where you’ll discover woodland ecosystems and learn to Forest Breathe. Communicate with the roots of the forest through smell, taste, touch and sight. Then enter the artisanal woodshop and create your own live-edge charcuterie board alongside David by choosing your own piece of locally harvested lumber. Work with a variety of tools as well as David’s grandfather’s handtools to create your board. In addition to getting your hands dirty in the woodshop, enjoy a handpicked selection of the local terroir including local artisan charcuterie, cheeses, preserves and breads while socializing around a Feasting table. Finally, return to the woodshop to explore Ottercreek Woodworks’ studio of handcrafted boards, personalize your work and learn how to use your new charcuterie board at home to enjoy with friends.
New! Due to COVID-19 quarantine & social distancing guidelines, we are now offering a ‘Book Your Bubble’ option in addition to our regular Experience Booking option.
