Founder
Built by a Farmer, Owned by a Farmer.
I’m Alyse Adams — an ASGA Certified Solar Grazier, regenerative farmer, and founder of Hidden Blessings Agrivoltaics in York County, South Carolina.
I completed the American Solar Grazing Association–CFAR Solar Grazing Workshop at White Oak Pastures in September 2026. Hidden Blessings Agrivoltaics brings a working farmer to the table with solar developers, O&M teams, and landowners across the Carolinas and Southeast — for vegetation that works and livestock that belong on the land.
Yes, I’m an engineer. Yes, I’ve run crews and budgets. And yes — if you visit the farm, you might meet a Wagyu who insists on licking the camera. That’s the point: real animals, real acres, not a slide deck.
I’m also building HB Young Shepherds with 4-H and FFA — growing our farmer-partner pipeline and leading a new generation into agriculture on solar land.
The farm
Hidden Blessings Farm
Since May 2024 we’ve raised Wagyu — roughly 30+ head and growing — and we’re building Katahdin flock capacity for solar sites (planned under the panels). Same standards: animal welfare, stocking rates, fencing, and vegetation outcomes operators can run.
Sheep and cattle, side by side. Katahdin under the panels as planned work. Wagyu cattle (dehorned, docile, smaller-frame animals) grazing in the rows and under the panels where clearance and layout allow. Cane berry crops under arrays and cut flowers at the edge when water and geometry support them.
Path
From build discipline to pasture
After college, life took me out of the lab: I cared for my father through his final illness, worked in Texas, lived in Germany, and backpacked Europe. Back in Charlotte I co-founded Bunkin Homes (2017–2024) — design, project management, and the business side of renovations and investment properties.
That build discipline — crews, constraints, getting projects finished — is what I bring to solar-site grazing plans. Hidden Blessings Agrivoltaics is the next chapter: farmer principal on utility-scale land.
Promise
Bringing the farmer to the table.
Developers, O&M, landowners, and counties get a vegetation conversation from a farmer who knows livestock and land.
Thesis
The plant stays the plant. The land stays a farm that sells.
Power sales and food sales can share acres when geometry, water, and a farmer principal are designed in early.

Let’s talk dual-use
Open to developer, O&M, and landowner conversations — sheep, cattle, or both — across the Carolinas and Southeast.
