With all this massive rain we've had, it's become apparent that we have some low-lying areas in our yard and garden bed. What's the best way to raise the soil level? Can I add compost or should I try to get some good quality soil mix? Also, we've got some standing water in the pathways around our garden, I'm assuming from compacted soil. What's the best way to help drainage in these areas?

PS-Blackberry anyone?
