On a guided tour of the farm, you can experience first-hand with all your senses how pumpkin seed oil was once produced and how it is produced TODAY. 

As soon as you enter Heimschuh, the beguiling aroma of Styrian pumpkin seed oil wafts towards you. Follow your nose and you will end up directly at the Hartlieb oil mill. The business is now run by the fourth generation and, in addition to the modern production facilities for vegetable oil production, houses many treasures from times gone by, which can be viewed in the exhibition “Kernöl – einst und heute” (pumpkin seed oil – past and present) in the old mill floor. During the one-hour guided tour, visitors learn about the fascinating craft of traditional oil production, in particular Styrian pumpkin seed oil, through the ages. The included oil tasting provides a culinary insight into the variety of natural oils.
In addition to the classic pumpkin seed oil, over 20 other pure vegetable oils are produced at the oil mill. Afterwards, browse through the mill’s own store, where you will find a variety of matching vinegars, different flours, spices and many other regional delicacies in addition to the oils.
