We all know teachers do so much more than teach our kids how to read and write. They also help our kiddos grow and make sure they’re safe when we’re not around. Teacher Appreciation Week is happening May 4 – 8, 2015. Say thank you to your teacher by giving them a gift with a local twist. From jewelry to jam, and classic to quirky, we found artisan-quality, locally-made gifts (all under $15) that will show our teachers how much we appreciate them. Click through the slideshow to see what we found.

Salt Farm

For the culinarily-inclined teacher, we're big fans of Salt Farm's gourmet and flavored salts. Varieties such as Himalayan Pink, Truffle, and Lime & Jalapeño are packed into these simple jars with modern labels. A salt flight of three sample-sized vials is $10 and each jar is priced between $10-12.
