If I were you, I would contact an irrigation company that deals with
installation of piping, etc. Having free water is a definite plus, but you
want to make sure you get the most efficient system to utilize it to the
max.

Good luck!

Can anyone steer me to information on building a water system for a garden
and
yard that are both rather large. I have water, a lake, but the climate in
this
area, west central Alabama, is bone dry in late summer and early Fall. I
need
to make use of the lake to keep this place green. Where do I start?
