I'm considering building a fence for my garden, and I want to ensure it doesn't hinder the natural drainage of the area. Can you provide tips on constructing a fence that allows proper water flow while still serving its intended purpose? Thanks!

Here are some tips to achieve this balance. Firstly, consider the spacing between the fence panels or slats. Opt for designs that allow water to pass through, such as lattice or spaced picket fences. This promotes natural drainage without compromising the fence's functionality. Secondly, when installing the fence posts, use a post driver to ensure they are securely anchored. However, leave a small gap at the base of the posts to allow water to flow freely. Additionally, avoid building the fence directly on the ground. Instead, elevate it slightly using gravel or concrete footings, which allows water to pass underneath.
