If you're looking for edible plants that are easy to grow and take up little space, definitely consider raspberries. They are self-fertile plants that will produce fruit even if only one plant is grown. 

An introduction from Cornell University, the primocane Crimson Giant Raspberry is a great choice for extending the raspberry harvesting season well into fall. It produces an abundant crop of giant, exceptionally sugar-sweet bright red berries beginning in late summer often continuing to first frost, which for raspberries is later than ever before. The fruits are firm and very easy to pick, easily releasing from the plant, and they have a long shelf life. The berries are excellent for fresh eating, in fruit and other salads, for sauces, muffins and breads, and smoothies, ice cream, popsicles and other deserts.
