With few exceptions vegetables will grow best in a sunny position. However, crops like
endive, lettuce, radicchio, peas and spinach will grow in more shady areas.
You can attempt to grow any type of vegetable anywhere if you do not an ideal sunny spot,
but they are unlikely to reach their full potential.

Shelter from cold and strong winds is always beneficial, especialy for vegetables like
peas and beans and essential for crops like aubergines and peppers.
