Herbs, Fruit and Veg Help?

I have quite a big garden. Anyway, yesterday, i was wondering round picking of the dead heads of the flowers. I then found a little mint and chives herb plants. I realized that there was lots of space with good soil and plenty of sunlight there to grow herbs, fruit and veg. So now i really want to grow them. The only problem is that i don’t know what time of year to grow them and weather they will survive in the winter. I think herbs will last all year round but i am not sure. Lemon grass, Basil, Sage, Thyme, Coriander, Mint, Chives, Oregano, Tarragon and Parsley are all the herbs i can think of. Do you know anymore and if theses ones will last in the winter? Potatoes, Sweet potatoes, Carrots, and Spring onions are all the veg i can think of. Do you know anymore that are easy to grow and again if the will survive? Thank you. And remember to suggest things that are EASY to grow. Cheers.
