So, we're moving in a couple of weeks. I was hoping to find a rental house that had a large-ish, sunny backyard so I could do some gardening (cool-weather stuff starting soon, then spring/summer stuff next year), but the best house for us turned out to be one with a very shady backyard. While I'm sure we could trim some limbs to let more light, the backyard would still remain pretty shady.

My question for you more gardening-savvy folks is: are there any veggies/herbs that you know of that do well in partial shade?

In the meantime, I'm just hoping we can find a decent place for the basil plant that randomly popped up... it's like 3 feet tall now!
