I'm sure I will need a filter for this as well, but I would like to
have a pump that would tolerate some amount of trash.

you can get pumps that can handle gunk in it... look into farm pumps
or the sewage pumps for below line toilets.

That said, i'd consider two pumps and a reservoir were i to do it.

Get a low flow pump (solar powered maybe) with a filter that will fill
a resevoir. The filtering of a low flow will be easier i'd think, and
it would stir up less silt etc due to the lower flow.

Then use a pressure pump to deal with the high pressure pre-filtered
water.

just a thought.

check with the County before pulling water from the creek for irrigation.

good idea... never know what water rights you'll have to deal with.
