This is the sixth year in a row that Setton Farms has raised money for Relay for Life.

This year, the Setton Farms team, Nuts for a Cure, held 33 fundraisers to raise money and awareness prior to the Relay for Life event. On Saturday, October 5th, team members, made up of employees, came out to walk in support of cancer research, patient support, and cancer prevention education.
"We're extremely honored to unite as a company and support such an important cause each year to help in the fight against cancer," said Setton Farms COO Mia Cohen. "Our entire team is very passionate about supporting the American Cancer Society and raising money for an organization that makes such a big impact."
Setton Farms employees began organizing fundraisers in January, holding several of them each month leading up to the Relay for Life event in October.
