A fencing system designed particularly for snow and sand fencing is disclosed. The fencing system consists of a framing structure for supporting a fence face between spaced upright members. The fence face is constructed of a strong flexible mesh such as a mesh formed of re-bar defining rectangular openings in horizontal and vertical rows. Plastic material slats are attached to the mesh extending longitudinally of the mesh from upright to upright, the slats lying parallel horizontal rows spaced from one another by a height approximately equal to the width of the slat. In this manner, approximately 50% of the fence face is open. The bottom of the fence face terminates above the ground by approximately 12" to 16" and the fence face is angled to the base surface approximately 15.degree..
