Best Gifts for Marylanders Who Live Far Away

Best Gifts for Marylanders Who Live Far Away

Sure, there's a whole wide world out there. And sometimes careers, educations, or a thirst for adventure takes Marylanders away from their home state. But COVID-19 is probably going to make it harder for a lot of Marylanders living elsewhere to make it back to the Old Line State. Luckily, there are some gifts you can send them so they can feel the local love, no matter where they're living now! Here are a few of our favorite picks:

Old Bay Hot Sauce (64 oz)

Send the flavor of Maryland right to someone's door, literally! This huge container of Old Bay hot sauce is sure to get your out-of-town friends through the rest of the year (okay, let's be serious, it'll at least get them through until Valentine's Day). 

Boh Come, All Ye Faithful Crew Sweatshirt

Does your loved one miss being around the sights and sounds of Baltimore at Christmastime? Maybe you can't bring them the decorations in Hampden, but you can give them the next best thing -- a Natty Boh Christmas sweater! A gift like this will definitely make them feel loved, Charm City style. 

Blue Crab Welcome Mat

If your friend or family member has moved away, they can still have a little Maryland flair at their door, thanks to this welcome mat! Send them a familiar blue crab that will greet them every time they come home, even if their new place doesn't have any crab houses in the neighborhood. 

Old Bay Caramel Gourmet Popcorn 1 Gallon Tin

If you spend too much time away from Maryland, you start to miss the unique sweet and spicy flavor of Old Bay caramel corn! Don't let your loved ones suffer any longer. This gallon bucket, complete with Maryland flag design, is filled to the brim with one of the state's tastiest treats. 

Utz 59x50 inch blanket

Cold winter nights are just so much cozier with a blanket...especially a blanket featuring the iconic Utz design! One side features an Utz chip pattern, while the other is a single large Utz chip package design. Perfect for the friend who prefers salty over sweet every time.
