Being higher up, instead of right on the ground is nice when digging root veggies and picking low veggies. Soaker hoses can sometimes be a pain if they are allowed to sink into the soil/mulch, so keep an eye on that.
The size of holes for the enclosure's fencing needs to be large enough for your pollinates to enter and exit easily. I think that most chicken wire has 1 inch holes and should be enough for honey bees, wasps, and flies to enter/exit easily. Bumble bees might have difficulty, but I've only seen them have major difficulty with the 1/2 inch holes. They are a major pollinator of squash, pumpkin, and gourds early in the morning.
The down side to holes large enough for pollinators is they will be large enough for cabbage moths and vine borer moths. You can use smaller mesh, over all your brassica plants to stop the cabbage moths easily. Other methods can prevent the vine borers.
If your area freezes, you will want to install a freeze-proof water hydrant as the main shut off for your entire water system. That way the water can drain out when you turn it off and nothing will freeze on the hydrant side (where you normally have another type of valve.) The water hydrants drain their entire riser pipe down into the ground when you shut them off. they are installed below the frost line and have a bucket of river gravel down there to allow the water to drain properly. They are great when you need water in the dead of winter.
