A rabbit fence for gardens can also help with keeping rabbits out of the garden. The fence does not need to be high, just 2 to 3 feet (61-91 cm.) tall, but you should bury the fence up to 6 inches (15 cm.) under the ground as rabbits are very good diggers.

The easiest way to add a rabbit-proof fence using chicken wire to the garden is to dig a trench around the bed, install the fence in the trench, and then backfill the trench.
