Digging a well by hand (part 1)

We dug a well on Fair Close Community Farm in Wolvercote. This is part of a five year plan to develop a community led and community run farm, operated on permacultural principles. Digging a well and using water that is already in the ground is a key part of reducing our inputs and becoming self-sufficient.
Music:

How do you know where to dig?

[@ukselfreliance8264]

The water table is only about 10ft down for us, so we could dig anywhere on the land and hit water!

The music is terrible!

Why? it is cool.

[@georgie4808]

There’s no such thing as terrible music, only music that’s not to your taste.

No, grime and drill music is terrible.
