Celebrating Ten Years | Our First Alpaca "Outstanding Omen"
Join us as we celebrate our ten year anniversary this month! Throughout the month of October, we will be sharing stories of our journey in the alpaca business over the last ten years as well as keeping you updated on current events and our visions and goals for the future. Pictured here is our very first alpaca, Outstanding Omen, still with us, though we don't use her in our breeding program any more. 
We remember well the day we purchased her, along with another female with a cria at side. After researching alpacas for over a year and finally deciding we did want to enter the business,we attended our first alpaca auction as a "Learning experience" with no intention of buying anything. We visited with several of the breeders offering alpacas for sale and then the auction began. Prices were much lower than what we had seen elsewhere and at the urging of a wonderful local breeder we had met, Loris Blandford? who offered to keep our alpacas at her farm until our pastures were ready,we put our hand up and were the winning bidder on Outstanding Omen! Oh my God, what have we done? we thought. We understood that "You can't have just one", so we purchased another female with a four month old cria at side. Suddenly, we were in the alpaca business! The rest, as they say is History. We will continue to share our story throughout the month, so please stay tuned and enjoy the ride down Memory Lane. 
Outstanding Dreams Farm is located in Caroline County on Maryland's eastern shore, just a short distance from many of the area's best dining experiences, cultural attractions, historical sites and charming small towns. Our visitors love coming out here for tours, shopping at our farm store and of course to meet and greet the alpacas! See what's nearby and plan a day trip to the farm while enjoying some of the local flavor and area destinations.
