Begin assembling board with any items that need to be served in small bowls—like dips and spreads, or brined items like olives.

Next, arrange cheeses and meats on board in desired pattern. (It’s okay to adjust them as you go!)

Layer on crackers or breads, along with fruits and vegetables.

Finally, add nuts and seeds to board in small piles (or small bowls).

Finish board with fresh herb sprigs, a crack of black pepper, and any desired garnishes.
