Subject: [permaculture] resources for temperate wetland species?

anyone have some suggestions for sources for species useful in
temperate wet and seasonally saturated soils?
i'm working in and around the edges of a wetland in dutchess co NY.
we have a CSA going in on the property, which is on just three or
four dry acres, the rest of the property (30+acres) being wetland of
various saturation. lot's of loosestrife, etc.
some useful shrubs, maybe some root crops? that could stand the wet
areas along the edges
we are having a biological survey done for any species of concern
here, but this land is basically covered with opportunistic stuff
that has come in over the last 30 years, before that (and the
beavers) the land was cow pasture
thanks!

also, are these list archives searchable? maybe i haven't found the
right interface page yet?
