I’m about to get Starlink at the house. This will be the first internet that we’ve had in roughly 10 years. What is the best way to get wireless internet to my barn roughly 250 feet away through trees?

Due to the trees, the best would be do underground conduit with fiber or ethernet cable. You really need good line-of-site for all high speed wireless long distance options.

Do you have power in the barn?

OP, if you really want to try wireless, you probably want to look at something in the 900Mhz range from Unifi:

a good mesh network should get you that pretty easily.
