Hey all! I’m currently in the process of moving up to north Wales to the old family home, and was wondering about water management and food growing in water-saturated soil. Water generally flows from east to west downhill towards the sea on this land (which is about a mile or so away). Annoyingly, the person renting the field uphill from our house has not maintained the historical drainage ditches, and so has allowed a large area of stagnant water and marshland to develop about 10 metres uphill of our home, which is now causing severe rising damp. I was wondering if there was anything I should plant between this marsh and the home to reduce how waterlogged the soil might be? I’ve read that the best way to deal with flooding is to create wetlands, and was hoping to create a food forest in a waterlogged area which could then act as a sponge during downpours – any hints and tips about what I could plant?
