I guess you mean what was grown.

Livestock were kept in small numbers by peasants, but they also tended the livestock of their masters (the noblemen). These included oxen, cattle, pigs, goats, chickens, geese and pigeons - but mainly large numbers of sheep.

Fruit and vegetables were grown: apples, Pears, plums, cherries and quinces were the main fruits. Vegetables included beet, carrot, radish, onions, leeks, shallots, garlic, cabbage, colewort, celery, goosefoot, kale, orache, parsnip, turnip, peas, beans (field beans, something like broad beans), swede, spinach, rape, rocket and watercress. Corn (cereal crops) included wheat, rye, barley, oats and millet.

A wide range of herbs would be grown, or gathered from the wild.
