Top 15 Pumpkin Seed Oils
in the World

Ölmühle Pronnegg is an Austrian family-run oil mill in St. Johann im Saggautal, southern Styria, specializing in pumpkin seed oil. It is run by Sandra and Martin Pronnegg, who took over the former Ölmühle Leopold in August 2022 and continued operating it under their own name.

The mill builds on the family’s long agricultural heritage: their farm was first documented in 1709, and Martin took it over in 2008 as the twelfth generation. Growing oilseed pumpkins and selling pumpkin seed oil directly from the farm have been part of the family business for generations. Acquiring their own mill allowed them to bring the entire production process under their control, from growing the pumpkins to pressing the oil.

At the heart of their range is Steirisches Kürbiskernöl g.g.A., Styrian pumpkin seed oil with protected geographical indication status. Their approach combines farming, traditional craftsmanship, and direct relationships with customers. The mill also welcomes visitors, who can watch pumpkin seeds being processed into oil, learn about the family’s work, and taste their products during guided tours.Expand

Rauch, also known as Ölmühle & Gemüsehof Rauch, is an Austrian family farm with its own oil mill in Bierbaum, in the municipality of St. Peter am Ottersbach, southeastern Styria. Drawing on generations of agricultural tradition, it produces pumpkin seed and sunflower oils and grows seasonal vegetables.

A defining feature of the farm is its control over production, from growing its own crops to bottling the finished oils. Its pumpkin seed oil is made exclusively from Styrian seeds grown on the farm and processed in its own mill.

Pumpkin seed oil production involves inspecting and cleaning the seeds, grinding them in a stone mill, mixing them with water and salt, carefully roasting the mixture, and pressing it using a piston press. The oil is then left to settle naturally before being bottled by hand in dark glass bottles.

Today, Rauch sells its products directly from the farm and through its online store. Its approach to development centres on growing its own crops, processing locally, and combining traditional craftsmanship with modern agriculture to offer customers quality local food.Expand
