Not a lot.
Garlic, broad beans and maybe some winter lettuce in the poly tunnel.
You may get some more advise if you ask the same question in the greenhouse/polytunnel section.

Sorry missed winter onions and all the fruit trees and bushes.

In addition to TerryB's advice, now is a great time for planning next years plot. You could be covering the areas you're going to plant Potatoes and Cabbages/Cauli's with horse manure/straw, then dig in next spring prior to planting.

Spinach would be fine in the ploytunnel too
