My husband and I are currently working for our dream of setting up an organic

sustinance farm. We aren't going to give up milk and meat, we can't afford to

buy organic, so the thing to do is do it all ourselves so that we know it is

truely organic. (Besides, I positively drool over the thought of having raw

milk again.) One of the homes we are seriously looking at has the added

attraction of having spring water piped into the house. Doc, you mentioned

that spring water and well water can be contaminated. How do we test this?

What should we watch out for? Just looking for some advice

There are water testing companies that advertise on the internet.

 

If you are serious about the water condition in a house you really

want to buy, make good water be a condition of the sale. Have

your pre-purchase home inspection company run the test as a

part of their service.

 

Agricultural run off into well water is a real concern in the country.

 

You can have the land tested for pollutants as well.

If you're intending to grow food organic, this is not an unreasonable

request.
