help choosing greenhouse veggies!

Hello everyone. I am about to purchase a 8x12' polycarbonate greenhouse and I am trying to figure out which veggies are best in a greenhouse in my region (coastal Vancouver Island). I don't want to run out of room realizing more need to grow in a greenhouse. It will be on a raised bed of about 8".

Definitely lots of tomatoes. We also want zucchini and cukes but i think both of those grow excellent outside (I will have raised beds). What about english cukes, will they grow in a greenhouse? Will grow some peppers but not tons.

Other veggies we really want: peas (regular and snow), beans, carrots, lettuce, radishes, turnip, spinach, squashes like butternut.

I think most of the above grow best in outdoor raised beds? What about squashes?

Fruit would be raspberries, strawberries, blueberries. Think these are all also outdoor raised beds.

Also, any veggie suggestions that do really well in a greenhouse?

Thanks tons! Can't wait to get it built, then a long wait till next year.
