    Awesome Jason! Many years ago I made a water catchment system to capture water for my washing machine as our well water was so hard that it left deposits on our clothes! I used two black plastic garbage cans that I piggybacked! It worked great! I saved the grey rinse water to use for the next wash load! I was working at Home Depot at the time and the guys in plumbing thought I was a bit wacky but it saved me time and money! The most expensive thing was the pump I used to transfer the water but it paid for itself quickly! Necessity is the mother of invention! We are in the process of getting a new property ready for us to move to next spring! Water catchment and saving is high on our list of projects, even though we have a well!

    You could also hook up a pump to a battery. I have a couple of old RV pumps for this purpose. You obviously want to keep that set up protected in a little dog house or something.

    Fantastic video Jason. As an Aussie its hard for me to understand why more people aren't already collecting every drop they can. Most of our country relies heavily on rainwater . In fact during a drought a few years ago ,the gov set up grants for city dwellers to have tiny rain tanks . A lot of bores that are here , prove so high in salinity or minerals that they're barely able to be used anyway or at best onlythose with big money can go deep enoughfor the good water . We have a dam but its been drying up quicker the last few years because we haven't even had minimum rainfall . Every time we put a roof over any structure, the first thing we do is get guttering and tanks on it. No one can survive without water.
    Our towns water has had problems for nearly 2 years with breaks in piping and filthy coloured water ,even bad bacteria a few times. It makes me so glad that my family is in control of our own water . Thank you for sharing ❤❤

    Excellent video Jason!!! Lifesaving information and skills to have for sure! We were without power for a week a few years ago due to a massive freeze event here in the Pacific Northwest, Northwest Oregon specifically. We get plenty of rain, however, in this event, we had no electricity to power our small community well. Thank God I had some preparations in place for an outage. Thanks again for sharing so much of your knowledge and experience!

    On the subject of water, find someone near you with a permaculture design certificate (PDC), or knowledge in a similar field. If you were to create a few swales/berms along the natural contours of your property, there would be a TON of benefits. You want the water to stay on your land for as long as possible, and allow it to soak into your soil and not only hydrate your plants, but help keep the well full!
    They could ultimately lead to the future pond area and keep it full as well!

    As the video was playing I was thinking all that water and no pond to catch it. That water could be used for cattle and wildlife - birds, deer, fish. Then you mentioned you were taking baby steps to get to a pond. With all that water flowing down your property at least you now have an idea where a pond could be located.

But by the end of summer '23 I was sorta, kinda thinking 2650+ gallons of water sitting out in the yard sure would beat filling soda pop and gallon bottles of water every so often for a backup water supply; even if we did decide to boil 'cause you don't want to be effectively camping out with tummy crud.
