If it twer me....I would either rent a mini trackhoe or pay somebody to come out with a backhoe and dig some test pits to see what the actual soil conditions are.
....topsoil down 2' that transitions to sandy loam that transitions to a 6' layer of usable clay.....
....is there any usable clay on the acreage?
....how much watershed do i have?
....how much would it cost to have a well installed...

Multiple locations for tests to see if you have good clay, what the water table actually is......


From there you will have a good idea of what you need to do and can seek some estimates. Small investment to make and it should give you some good data to work on if it's doable in your budget.
