There is a big round pipe from the well that sticks up about a foot high in the middle of our front yard. You’d think there would have been a less conspicuous spot to drill a well on our five acres — but I guess the well-drilling company’s prevailing wisdom said they would find water in the front yard — and they did, 400 feet down. The well-pipe is an eye-sore and I’ve been wanting to find a way to camouflage it for some time now.
On Friday I made my weekly run to the my local Amish market. I try my hardest to stay out of the adjoining garden center — because there is always an impulse buy, and heaven-knows, I don’t need any more garden plants right now. But right there, right in front of the garden center was a well cover. Not only a well cover — but one exactly like I’ve been invisioning — with an actual well pump on top of it. I wedged my groceries into the front seat of the car, flipped down the back seat and opened the back hatch. There was only ONE there and I wasn’t going to risk coming back on Saturday with Chris and the pick-up truck. I wanted it now.
So now I have a swell well cover — and a new flag, just in time for Memorial Day!

I love that well pump! We don’t have a well (on town water) but I want one in my front yard anyways!

Wow Jeanne, that is really cool! We also have one of those pipes in our side/front, about 10′ from our driveway. I would like something for it too, but the pump is perfect for your house! Good find!

It is appropriate for your homestead, and is the perfect camouflage for an unattractive wellhead!
