I always set up farms on the plains because you can grow anything there, if possible also on the island.

Yea, swamps aren't too fun. Although a friend of mine built a really cool "pirate" themed base in the swamps. And I usually build on Islands as well. Just cant stand living in the meadows after defeating Bonemass
