How Setton Farms Began: It all started in 1959 with a bakery and a dream. The Setton brothers hoped that they could win over the taste buds of Brooklyn’s residents with delicious sponge cake and jelly donuts. Years later that dream grew into a passion to share gourmet food and specialty items. In 1967 they opened their first grocery store. During that time, the Setton brothers began selling packaged nuts and seeds to major retailers in the New York metropolitan area. In 1981 they expanded their operation by entering the wholesale business selling nuts, dried fruits, seeds, trail mixes and other specialty items.
Today Setton Pistachio of Terra Bella, Inc. is one of America’s largest pistachio grower and processors. The family’s passion for farming California pistachios today encompasses over 10,000 acres farmed directly and in partnership with others. As a vertically integrated pistachio company, Setton is able to focus on its tradition of excellence and pays attention to every step of the process, ensuring the top quality and value of their family’s passion.

My Thoughts
Looking for a healthy, delicious, easy snack for yourself or your family? Well look no further than with Setton Farms Pistachio Berry Blend. This is the perfect snack to have with you any time of day: on the way to work in the morning, sprinkled on your salad at lunch, midnight snack, etc. You really can’t go wrong…my bag is already gone, and I just opened it up Monday. This snack includes three of my favorite nuts, pistachios, cashews & almonds (add some walnuts and this girl will buy in bulk) and white chocolate chips, so it’s the perfect sweet & salty snack. I also really like that is comes in a resealable bag to keep from the mix getting stale.

I love pistachios both in sweet and savory dishes. They are perfect in salads such as this one. I have never tried brown rice syrup. I would love to try the Setton Farms Pistachio Chewy Bites.
I love the pistachio and berry blend snack. I would have trouble not eating the whole bag and having enough saved to make the salad. What a yummy looking salad.
This looks like a great salad that would be perfect on a mid-spring afternoon. Not very often can you find a great choice like this. I appreciate all the great recipes that are featured on your blog.
You know, I have never tried pistachios. I should try these. They certainly look good!
This sounds good i love pistachios
never had them in a salad looks
good.i love salads too
I have been eating more salads lately and love the salad recipe because it looks so healthy and I like the Pistachio Berry Blend. I will have to make this salad and try out this blend.
I love this salad idea, and would like to make it. I haven’t seen anything from Setton Farms in my area, but I haven’t been looking, and haven’t been to many places. I want to look for it!!
I’d love to try this and also need to get some brown rice syrup. I had some which I won but it didn’t last long since I scarfed it down quickly! I love any kind of nuts and thank the good Lord I am not allergic. They are so good for you and really help keep me satisfied. Cucs have been such a good price lately that I’m really stocked up and need to use them so I’ll include extra in the recipe.
I haven’t seen this in any store around here! I’ll have to look. Now that the warm weather is on the way, it’s time to break out the salads. This is a nice-sounding blend. I always do like some crunch in my salad, and these heart-healthy nuts are a better choice than plain croutons (full of empty carbs).
Oh, I’ve had these! They are so good. I like your salad idea. I need to buy some brown rice syrup (note to self). they are also good on an avocado and orange salad.
