Hi,

We have recently moved here to Donegal and we love gardening. However we have recently discovered that our land is basically bog !

I recently dug a hole to investigate the soil and weeks later that hole is just full of water that does not drain away, a bad sign I would say.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to how we can best treat the land for drainage so we can start to grow Veg' ?

Thanks for any advice.
