Which fruit, herbs and vegetables to grow in shade

Which fruit, herbs and vegetables to grow in shade: "Asparagus, Beetroot, Broccoli, Brussels Sprouts, Cabbage, Carrots, Cauliflower, Cress, Endive, Kale, Leaf (Spinach) Beet, Leeks, Lettuce, Mushrooms, Parsnips, Radicchio, Radish, Rocket, Spinach, Swiss chard  "
Basil, Chives, Coriander, Mint, Parsley, Sage.
Raspberries.
Swiss chard and lettuce.
Rhubarb.

If there’s partial shade – and a couple of hours of sun – then green leafy veg seem to do better.

Here’s the list:

Lettuce
Broccoli
Swiss Chard
Parsley
Cauliflower
Spinach
Courgettes/Marrows
Kale
Radish
lettuce and beets do well in the shade.

If you have an area which is in full shade, your best bet is to plant some shade-loving shrubs or flowers – sorry, I know that’s not much fun but it’s the truth.
