        Comfrey will be OK.

          Anything that is all leaf, and no fruit will just about cope in the shade. So that includes lettuces, salad leaves, cabbages, kale, brussels, spinach, leaf beet etc. Spinach particularly prefers not to be in the full blast of the sun.
          Also, raspberries and blackberries, as woodland fruits, will cope with some shade, although preferably not all day.

            I find that parsley also does well in my shady areas!! I can confirm that lettuce does well as Sarah said. Rapberries too.
