**Add Organic Matter**: Mix in some compost or well-rotted manure to your soil. It helps break up heavy clay and improves overall drainage while also giving your plants some extra nutrients.

**Create Raised Beds**: If your garden tends to hold water, consider building raised beds. They elevate the soil, allowing for better drainage and preventing water from pooling around your plants.

**Incorporate Sand or Gravel**: Mixing in coarse sand or gravel can help improve drainage. Just be careful not to overdo it, as too much can make the soil too loose for plants to thrive.
