Broadhead Farm, also known as the Broadhead-Heller Farm and/or "Wheat Plains," is a historic home located in the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area at Lehman Township, Pike County, Pennsylvania. It was established in the late 1770s by Garret Broadhead (1733-1804), a soldier of the American Revolution. The main structure is a large 2+1⁄2-story, clapboard sided dwelling. It has a slate covered gable roof with dormers. The oldest section is of log construction and it was added on numerous times over the succeeding years. Also on the property are a variety of modern barns and farm outbuildings.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.
