Barn
When I took this picture, there wasn't much farming going on, at this farm off Peasely Road. Now it's full of beef cattle and buffalo.

2016 Berne Land Use
While Berne has quite a bit of farming going on in the valleys, there is less agriculture going on there then to the north in Knox. A lot of the hillsides and upper elevation areas aren't great for farming, and even in the valleys, more of the land is used for pasture and hay production.
