What type of soil do you have where you live? Our land is sort of sandy and when it rains it does not get muddy. As a matter of fact, it becomes even harder when it's wet.

We have noticed on our 43 acres that it acts kinda like a sponge when it rains. I guess that is good since we rely on ground water from the rain the seeps down. As long as we don't constantly go over a wet area it does not get too bad. You could help your soil by composting all your vegetable trimmings and newspapers shreded and leaves. In time that could loosen up your soil. I know it improves our garden a bit year after year.

Our land is the same when it rains in soaking up the rain which is good for the grass for our animals.
Perhaps I should have stated that it gets hard on the road that we travel on to get from the street to our home.
The rest of the land is just great.
Thanks
