All of those are going to want full sun. For the crops, make sure to give them good quality soil, and water them (they're all very tough plants that can survive minimal care, but watering them, especially on hot days, can improve crop yields.) Lavender can be tricky to find the right spot for, but once you get it established in the right conditions, it'll be very easy. Lavender grows best when the flowers are harvested, so give it a trim twice a year (once in mid-summer, once in early fall)
