high water table

looking at property.
this place has a high water table which is awesome cos i wont have a problem filling ponds and the wet land will be AWESOME!.
but it causes some problems when it comes to drainage in the winter.
but i dont want to direct it all off the property i need to store it and at the same time build beds high enough to keep plants alive in the flood.

any ideas?

Keep dreaming! the more you dream the more reality has to offer you!
