There is an irrigation ditch which flows with water for about 12 hours every 8 days so they divert part of it to water the field and Grandma's garden next door. The main garden is watered from the metered mains on a daily basis.

Water
In Salt Lake City water is such a precious commodity as the area would just revert back to desert if there was no irrigation. Fraser's house in West Jordan has a very ingenious method of irrigating the 1 acre of land which is used by Father in Law Carlo to keep a couple of head of cattle and also to irrigate the large vegetable garden.
