Looking for hand well pump recommendations

Good morning,
We are  looking for a hand pump for the well at our orchard. Its been a long dry spell and 2 year old trees are withering despite mulch. Hauling water is no longer making it.
Bison pumps were a good product, but they have moved to some plastic components and are expensive.
Not sure how valid a concern the plastic is. Wondering what people's experience is and welcome recommendations.
I see pumps in a wide range of prices.

We hope to find a pump we can attach a hose to.
Thanks

 Additional note to my post on hand pumps.

    The well is about 180 ft deep. Latest level depth check was in winter was 22 feet.

I found this site which looks hopeful. https://homesteadingalliance.com/best-hand-water-pump-for-deep-wells/[/url]

And when I posted this a number of promising threads which I did not find in my search on this site came up.

Hi,
It is good to see another Mainer on Permies :)

How deep would it need to be able to go? If you have a high water table and only need to go down 30ft or so... there are some very reasonable hand pumps. https://www.lehmans.com/product/enclosed-top-cistern-pump/ for instance can go to 25' and is only a couple hundred. If you need to go deep, then Bison and Simple are probably the two top brands... and both can be expensive.

I'm not too worried about plastic. I'd rather not use it, and I'd rather not have food come in contact with it... but there are things I'm working on first that have greater impact.

Lastly, any chance of rainwater collection in a high place and gravity feeding it to where you want it?

I've been happy with my simplepump for more than 20 years.

Thanks Matt, nice to know you are nearby.
I might need to go a bit deeper than the iron pump offered by Lehman's. Will recheck water level now while we are in "severe drought".
Would also like a threaded outlet.
The Simplicity which both you and Les suggested (thanks Les) is a work of art. Pretty pricey too. Same with the Bison, at maybe a bit less.

I'll continue to research and welcome other suggestions.

Hi T,

Here is another thread with some more suggestions, including one that can be made relatively inexpensively.

Good luck!

Thank you Les. I might give that a shot. Will keep you posted.
