Hi all, I've just moved into my first house and har a east facing

The left of it I've built a raised bed, but having never owned a garden

sunlight from around 8am-midday.

OK, your email address indicates you're in the UK and you indicate
you have a raised bed that faces south and east.

1. Whatever you plant, plant in N-S rows with at least .6 meter
E-W intervals. If you have enough space, use 1 meter intervals.

2. Plant based on height from east to west with the tallest plants
on the west.

I don't know what you should plant - only what I would plant.
You should read up on companion plants.

Use containers for herbs and spices as they can winter indoors.
