The Board on the Beach That Started It All

The real beach board: cheeses, cured meats, berries, and a sunflower arranged in a pan on a wooden table set in the sand

Every company has an origin story. Ours is a board on a beach.

Scott grew up on a farm in Boscawen, New Hampshire, graduated from Johnson & Wales, and spent 30 years in the food industry — 17 of them in professional kitchens, rising to executive chef. But the board that started this company wasn't for a restaurant. It was for his wife and her high school friends, packed up and carried to the beach.

The compliments that wouldn't quit

The board came home empty and the compliments didn't stop. When your friends won't let something go, you listen. Jones Charcuterie Co. is the result: chef-built boards, cups, boxes, towers, grazing tables, and soups, made in Salem, New Hampshire, with locally sourced produce from farms and purveyors we trust.

Made to gather

That beach board had the two things we still build everything on: elevated dining and great company. If you have a gathering coming up — a holiday, a birthday, or just a Friday — we'd love to build yours.
