We have culinary water for our house and secondary (irrigation) water for our sprinkler system in our lawn. We recently installed a spigot next to our garden that feeds off the irrigation water, sprinkler system. We thought it would be cheaper to use the irrigation water on the garden because we water so much, but now I’ve heard that irrigation water can be hazardous to use on vegetable that we will be eating. Is this true?

Hi I am currently working on my Eagle Scout service project for Boy Scouts where I am building a butterfly garden for my high school. The garden is split up into two plots each about 10 by 25 feet separated by a side walk. I am trying to make the garden as low maintenance as possible and was wondering what type of irrigation system I should put in there to keep the plants alive and growing.
