Hi,
My property is predominantly wetlands. I have a stream that is about 10' wide that flows through it. Two to three times a year it will flood. Generally, this is a shallow, short lived event - about 8" of water that comes and goes in about two to four hours. During Hurricane Irene, however, I had about three feet of water that flowed for about six hours. This was the worse that I had seen.
My question is, what type of edible planting can I do in this area? The ground, itself, is about a foot of rich dark soil, with red and grey clay beneath that. It is always moist, even in the longest drought.
Thanks for you input.
Tom
