The Wilkins Farm is a historic farmstead at 989 Swover Creek Road in rural Shenandoah County, Virginia, near Edinburg. The home was recognized under three criterion. Criterion A[2] under Exploration/Settlement as a late 18th-century German farmstead, Criterion B in the area of Art as the boyhood home of fraktur artist Emanuel Wilkins, and Criterion C for Architecture of German builders who used native materials of limestone, hardwoods and Yellow pine. The primary dwelling on the farm was a frontier log structure, c.1776 that was evolved to a two-story midland folk, log home c. 1789. The older portion, a simple log cabin, was built by Augustine Cofman in order to satisfy the requirements of a land grant he had received the prior year, which required placement of a dwelling on the 188.5-acre (76.3 ha) grant. A The larger, two-[2] story log structure was built with the cabin as a side ell. The farm was in the Wilkins family from 1824 until 2003.[3]

The farmstead was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.[1]
