Shade loving veggies?

We moved to a new place earlier this year that has a garden plot; yay!  But, it's very shaded as we have numerous large pine trees in the yard.  What veggies would do well without a ton of sunlight?  Thanks!

  • Half of my garden only gets a few hours of sun a day and there are a few things we have found success growing - lettuce and mint being the most bountiful.  Our local garden center had a list of shade-growing veggies for our area, but knowing what we eat we opted for mint and other herbs instead.  I believe varieties of chard will grow along with borage and a few others.  In my area, lettuce doesn't grow well in the warmer months though.

    I have found the best knowledge has come from an independent garden center in my area - they know the soil and climate better than anyone in my area.
