Irrigating out of swamp - 07/17/21 05:06 PM
With the Drought going on here and everything dying I am looking for a way to water some pastures. We have cattail swamps, heavy bog with muddy water underneath, no open water at all. Wondering if anyone had ever pulled water out of a swamp like this before? I was considering drilling many small holes in a 55 gallon barrel and burying it most of the way in the swamp, hopefully water would flow in and could be pumped out without a ton of debris.
Any thoughts before I get muddy trying to bury a barrel in a swamp?
