One of the three main components to building a pond is water, water that will fill the pond and keep it full. The water we are looking for comes from the watershed, the area above the pond that when snow melts, rain and rain storms fall to the ground and moves down hill to the pond or at least where the pond will be some day.
What I’m getting at, is if you’re planning to build a pond start looking at the property and see where the water runs to. If you are new on the property start watching where the water comes from, is it headed to where you want the pond? If not can the runoff be diverted to go where you want the pond?
