Climate in our area is not any extremely difficult for gardening thanks to Gulf Stream bringing warmth up here. Finland is quite long country where the climate and the hardiness zones varies a lot through the country. I know people with beautiful gardens in Kemijärvi above the Arctic Circle. There are naturally challenges and perennial plants have to be very hardy. We have short summers, but a lot of light during the growing season grows tasty veggies and fruits.
