Garden bed 6 months of useable light

Just wondering how many of you get a complete year of usable light from your garden beds. We have a tall retaining wall in our back yard (house faces east) and a fence on that so it's quite tall AND a tree line behind 1/3 of our back yard and I just realized we aren't going to get sun beyond 3:00 or 4:00 at the end of October from looking at pics we took before we moved in (this pic taken taken Oct 22). That means maybe a 6 month out of the year bed, is that a decent time frame? Right now beds get about 8 hours of sun. I wanted to do a winter garden with kale and such but I am a l concerned there won't be enough light. Garden is in raised beds where shed is in this picture. Thanks!
