Our farm has been in DH family for over 200 years and there is a hand dug well up at the barns that is about 50ft deep and is lined all the way up with river rock. IDK how in the world they dug that thing and lined it all those years ago, before there was machinery. It is fed from a natural spring underground and the water is ice cold and clear as a bell. |
Well water can be very good are very bad. Growing up its all I drank. And it was very good but they did not use all the chemicals they do now. We are on rural water and my pups drink out of the tap.
