I am probably the worst gardner in the world, so please excuse me if this a stupid thing to be asking..
..but....
My garden is very very soggy, the area is known to be so and when I bought the house I accepted this. Now though with kids growing up, I would like to see if anything can be done so that the garden can be used for more of the year.
The basic problem is that the soil turns completly to mud with only a little rain, so I assume it is somthing to do with clay below that does not allow the water to drain.
Is there anything that can be done ?
Thanks in advance
