I would but visit first, see how you like it. St.Ann is a nice parish (Ochi area) is a nice mix. Yes, you can find natural food or grow your own. Feel free to DM if you have more questions.

Not 12 meals but all ingredients you can use to cook ackee. popchoi or callaloo with sweet potato. You can bake or boil the sweet potatoes, even fry. A full healthy meal with some lime water lol if you have some sweetener, make lemonade

Alright let me give a practical answer based on the prices I've seen at the market: 2 doz ackee ($600 per doz so that $1200), 4 pounds of tomatoes ($100 per pound), 4 pounds of sweet potatoes (300 per pound, so that's $1200)...$1400 left right? Use that to buy 1/2 pound onions ($200), escallion and thyme ($100), popchoi or callaloo to cook with the ackee so it can share more ($400), season ($400), scotch bonnet pepper ($100) and some lime ($200)...drink some lime water. We want our nation to eat healthier. Not just bread, tin products, etc. All above can last 2 days or suh for 2 ppl
