Pole barns in Wells

Out around Wells, the ground and the weather ask a lot of a building. Posts go below the 42 inch frost line, the roof is sized for Faribault County snow and the frame is braced for open-country wind.

Drain tile runs under many fields, so the site is checked before the pad is set and the posts are dug, to avoid cutting a line that drains neighbors' ground. Albert Lea Lake and Fountain Lake, along with creeks and small lakes across Freeborn County, bring shoreland setbacks and limits on hard surface for buildings nearby.
