[Greenbuilding] Special Valve

Hallo, all.
Sometime over the winter, or in early spring, I'll be installing
a small solar panel over my well head, which will run a small,
low-flow pump in parallel to my regular well pump (and higher up in
the well case). I want the low flow pump to top off the house
pressure, and then, as it keeps running, drive the remaining water to
the pond.
In order to do this, I need a valve which will let water go to
the pond if pressure exceeds a given limit, but otherwise won't let
water flow in that direction.
I called my local building supply, and they're not familiar with
such a valve.
Can anyone here think how to do this? (Preferably without power
consumption.)
