Significance: The Hjelm Farmstead is significant for its association with Swedish and Swedish-American settlement in the rural New Sweden and Riverview areas of Idaho. These communities reflect Swedish patterns of settlement and the immigrants adaptation to American lifeways. The Hjelm Farmstead is also significant as a representative example of turn-of-the-century farmstead architecture.
