I know this is mainly pond issues but I live along a creek and want to draw some of the water out of the creek to water the area of my back yard along the creek. I use city water and an irrigation system for my front yard but want to do some drip irrigation or sprinklers for the back. The area is heavily wooded and we are growing a lot of ferns, mountain laurels, and other plants. Where would I get information on how to draw the water from the creek and do I need a holding method before applying the water?
