Default Re: Vegetable Gardening in the Shade

I found this about tomatoes that will grow and produce fruit in the shade.

One year I bought 5-gallon buckets, drilled holes in the bottom, and grew my tomatoes in those because I knew we'd be moving in July. Would that be a way to find sun for your tomatoes? Also, front yard vegetable gardens are quite the thing, now-- food, not lawns-- if your front yard has sun.
Dh doesn't want a garden in our front yard. I mentioned that to him because the Amish have front yard gardens in our area if they can't have them anywhere else. I tried tomatoes in 5-gallon buckets with holes drilled in them last year when we were house hunting. We didn't plant a garden because we had no idea when we'd be moving. The tomatoes didn't do well in buckets at all.
