Pond Boss Forums GENERAL QUESTIONS Help Pump Questions

So I know I've read lots of posts about pumps for various applications from transferring water from one pond to another, from streams to ponds, for draining ponds, etc. I cannot get the search function on the site to work narrowly enough to make the results useful and don't know anything about the Google search angle that I saw referenced in the "Changes Coming" thread, but it sounds like it would be a very useful tool to know more about.

Anyway, my question is this: we are going to be planting a larger garden at our farm this spring and do not yet have a water source there other than the ponds. By late summer, we should have water through the local PSD, but until then, we don't have a well or any other source. I'd like to use pond water for our garden and know I'll need a pump. What sort of pump am I looking for and what means of running it should I be aware of? We have power available, but just haven't set up an account yet and will have some time and expense in getting it run from the main road to our property, none of which will happen prior to our need for water for the garden.

So, what sort of solution am I looking at for this? I mean aside from filling a bucket and making a lot of trips back and forth!

Thanks!
