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?

I would start by making sure the lake water is yours to use.
