Hi Gigi! I have sent you an email reply as well.
You can definitely plant all of those in one bed. If you’re using the square foot method, just mark your squares and start planting. I would recommend planting Eggplant on the outer edge since these tend to grow much larger than the rest of the veggies you listed and plant root crops on the opposite end of your bed with greens and herbs interplanted in the bed.

Hi, I sure can use your help with designing my new garden bed. It is part of a community garden in central Florida. It’s 4×8 and has some shade from an oak tree. I’m guessing that it is only getting 6 hrs of good sun. I’m interest in beets, broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, kale, eggplant, Lavender and some wild flowers. Is that too much for this size bed? It’s ready to be planted now and I would like to order within the next day or so. Any advice for this novice would be greatly appreciated.
