No people or animals were harmed, but a barn in rural Farmersburg was destroyed, when a fire broke out late last week.

Fire departments from Farmersburg, St. Olaf, Garnavillo and Monona responded to the John and Kathy Klinge farm on 170th Street around 3:30 p.m. on Thursday, July 2.

The fire was started by hay inside the structure, and consumed the barn along with 50 large hay bales inside. Damage was an estimated $50,000.
