Oh it totally is, it is just a task trying to not have it flooded. Looking into seeing if our city allows french drains as that would likely help but still keep the soil. 1

So, this summer, we will be freezing a ton of produce. The vacuum sealer is a very handy tool. We plan to can some things as well this year. Gardening is enjoyable.

fuggstop Posted March 30, 2019 Posted March 30, 2019 Own a house. Its a family house anyone can use when they want. I plan to renovate it
SwimModSponges Posted March 30, 2019 Posted March 30, 2019 Just a low area; had a ton of snow in late winter so there was a huge amount of melt. Last apartment we were in, landlords let us put up a couple raised beds in the front yard and we grew a handful of veggies. I'd like to do something similar here. That island out in the middle there get good sunlight. 1

A little extra water isn't going to kill the garden.
