In the small, fine pumpkin atelier you dive into the world of pumpkin and taste the innovative delicacies.

Specialties Around the Pumpkin
A former police officer who has now dedicated himself to the Styrian pumpkin? Yes, it’s true. And it’s happening in Weinberg an der Raab near Fehring. Far from mass production and mainstream, Johann Koller’s Pumpkin Farm invites you to dive into the world of pumpkins.

The Heart of the Pumpkin
Pumpkin sparks creativity. From the same stuff that makes real Styrian oil, you can extract far more than just pumpkin seed oil. Johann Koller successfully produces pumpkin pesto, chutney, lard, jams, and other delicacies with love and serenity.

A Sensation!
The pumpkin seed oil is cholesterol-free, rich in essential fatty acids, and tastes as if it were the third course served to the gods alongside nectar and ambrosia. Since the early 18th century, the Styrians have been extracting pumpkins with pleasure and turning them into the famous Styrian pumpkin seed oil. Johann Koller, a young man, runs a small family business and simply joined in. At first, that is. But eventually, the time came when he started having truly brilliant ideas.

A New Pumpkin Era
Now, with great care and skill, he not only produces one of the best pumpkin seed oils but also snacks, pesto, lard delicacies, chutneys, and jams. His pesto is even considered the original of all pumpkin seed pestos in culinary circles and is unbeatable when paired with pasta, cheese, or a proper potato rösti. You must also try the truffled pumpkin lard, which, with its name alone, stimulates not only culinary imagination but also the production of saliva.

You can taste all these products in the Pumpkin Atelier, an old barn building with vaulted ceilings that has been painstakingly renovated. On the observation terrace, you can enjoy a stunning view of the rolling hills of the southeastern Styrian region.
