Saint Catherine Parish
Saint Catherine (Jamaican Creole: Sent Cyatrine) is a parish in the south east of Jamaica.A plain of approximately 230 square kilometres (57,000 acres) occupies the southern part of the Rio Cobre basin.With its good water resources, virtually flat landscape, and nearness to the capital, it could possibly be one of the Caribbean's major urban areas in the next few years.There are many small farmers who practice mixed farming; crops such as bananas, coconuts, pineapple, citrus, pumpkins, peppers, coffee and callaloo are planted for both domestic and commercial purposes.The Salt Ponds District between Spanish Town, Port Henderson and Passage Fort is noted for the fine fish especially calipera.
