Organic Food Basket Pros: Affordability, Taste & Community Support
From saving money (most fruit and vegetable basket plans vary from $15 to $35 a week) to supporting the local economy as well as giving a bigger share of your money to the farmers themselves, the pros of buying organic food baskets are as plentiful as the surprising selection, quality and quantity of produce you'll get every week when you join a CSA farm. Here's an example of what you can expect to find on a weekly organic food basket.

In addition to getting to know the people who grow your food, organic farms selling food baskets in Montreal protect soil and food quality by avoiding pesticides, chemical fertilizers, herbicides, antibiotics, growth hormones and genetically modified seed.

And before you read the cons, take a look at what Molly Watson, your About.com Guide to Local Foods has to say about the advantages of eating local in general.

Cons: Practicality, Choice & Risk
CSA farms generally adhere to strict weekly schedules with drop-offs at select neighborhood locations. So if your schedule is as unpredictable as a flight attendant's, you might have difficulty obtaining your pre-purchased basket. Some farms have a no refund policy, others give the missed baskets to charity and still others make alternate arrangements (such as farms specializing in meat) so do check how flexible a CSA farm is regarding scheduling, drop-off locations and refunds.
