So might load up wood chips 12 inches? or maybe 6 inches. I dug a small pool area that helps drainage.
https://permies.com/t/80/120453/Great-Wood-Chips (my post when snow was on ground. Shows pool drainage the area around the pool is marshy, I have a small shallow trench leading into pool. I did pile organic stuff and crushed glass next to foundation a year ago. Still a marshy area on North side of house.)
Bless your Family,

It's like being on a deserted island - only with gardens and natural buildings in Montana
