The good news is that there really are a lot of great options for growing vegetable plants in the shade to help make the most of your garden space all season long.
Asparagus is a must have perennial edible that will come back year after year. It will tolerate being grown in the shade, but may produce less than in a sunny location.
Peas hate the heat and will usually wither and die in the heat of the summer. They love being planted in spring and fall, but for a summer crop, they will love the shade.
Root vegetables will do ok in the shade, but these crops will also take a bit longer to mature than the seed packet or plant label may indicate if planted in the shade.
