I have dreamed since I was a child to have my own pond, but i never thought there were so many things to take into consideration. First off are there anyways to fill a pond where there isnt a natural spring or stream? Also is it possible that a pond can be dug and not lined with anything, but also not leak. how should a pond be constructed, and how can it be kept full? I would love a 5 acre pond roughly what would be the price on that and would it be cheaper to buy used equipment and dig myself. And finally do I or Dont I want to hit the water table? thanks any input will be greatly apreciated
