Answer
Hi John:  The soil under a pond should be extremely rich in nutrients because of the decomposition that would occur in the mud... People who grow plants with specific soil needs would be interested in that.  If you figure that a cubic foot of potting soil goes for about $3 a foot... that  your pond has created a small gold mine... as for who would be interested... I can not say.  I would ask your neighbor or you might even be able to check on line or with companies who sell soil by the cubic foot... dave
