The J. C. Rhew Co. Packing Shed was a strawberry packing house in rural northern White County, Arkansas. It was located on the south side of Graham Road near its junction with Fuller Road, northeast of Providence. It was a single-story wood frame structure, in the shape of a long rectangle divided into six bays, capped by a gable roof and set on concrete piers. Built about 1939, it was noted for a distinctive floor plan, apparently designed to facilitate the movement of workers through the building.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.[1] It has been listed as destroyed in the Arkansas Historic Preservation Program database.
