Wayside Farm

A 120-acre family farm east of Berryville at 5273 Harry Byrd Highway, owned by the brothers Philip and Mark Shenk with Theresa and Beth Shenk, reported in Clarke Monthly in October 2025.

Wayside Farm, east of Berryville at 5273 Harry Byrd Highway, is a 120-acre family farm owned by the brothers Philip and Mark Shenk with Theresa and Beth Shenk, as Clarke Monthly reported in October 20251. A specific address, a specific size, a specific family ownership structure — four named owners of one farm, two of them brothers.

One claim establishes the farm's ownership and physical description at the October 2025 date. The farm's working programme (crops, livestock, or diversified operation), its earlier ownership history, and the family's own Clarke County arc are the natural next research targets.
