Oak- If you put a pump in can you run a sprinkler off it? It won't be a full in ground irrigation system, just one sprinkler at a time. I really think rain water is better for the yard but maybe it is all in my head. I hate to think how much water we waste watering this stupid grass and would love to get it from the rain not that we get rain right now.

I am admittedly very clueless but reading up on this. I need to figure out where the local organic/green growing center is, I have seen it on the news and I think they were talking irrigation and rain collection.
