God’s Country Barn

After the unexpected death of our son, Brandon Gerdes, my husband and I decided to transform tragedy into a legacy as we restored a vintage barn in the heart of God’s Country, creating a beautiful venue for celebrations — weddings, social gatherings and vendor shows.

Our son, Brandon Gerdes loved hunting, especially in God’s Country. That’s what he called the rolling hills and rugged terrain in Knox County near the Center area. He was an avid hunter and he enjoyed scouting the terrain. He had a deep appreciation for all that it offered, even the sheer grandeur of the view. “Look at this, Mom,” he would say, “This is God’s Country.”
