I don’t know for certain but I would suspect it isn’t. There’s white trim around the edges and at the peak that don’t strike me as being period correct. The barn was raised in 1929.
There was a tradition of nailing a sapling tree to the peak of a barn once the frame went up. Here’s a photo of a local barn raising that shows just such an attached sapling.
