Drilling an agricultural well

[Momma_Z]

Hi there!

As we expand our micro homestead, we are looking into drilling a well but we are having trouble finding the water table depth for the correct water table! I am located in northwest Florida!

What are some tips or tricks, that you have come across in beginning to expand your homestead?

I am in Northwest Florida, it varies wildly. Before I had my well drilled, I pulled up the permits (they are online) for several dozen wells drilled "near-ish" me in the county - there was almost 100' of difference between some of the well depths.
