Who we are

About the farm

Four generations of us live and work on our full-time family farm in Oberlatein (Eibiswald), which has more than 280 years of tradition; Thomas took over the farm in 2022. Pig fattening and breeding and direct marketing are our main lines, and we also keep pasture geese and turkeys, hens and sheep, and for over 20 years we have pressed Steirisches Kürbiskernöl g.g.A. from pumpkin seeds grown on our own fields. Smoked meats, sausages and salami are made in our own on-farm slaughter room; besides our 24-hour self-service farm shop we ship to order, while fresh meat and pasture geese (mid-October to end of November) are available to pre-order. We also offer three camping pitches by the Lateinbach stream, with farm tours.

Who are you?

As a producer, use the email address on your farm profile.

How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.

Is this your farm?

If this is your farm, you can take over the profile: click the button and enter your e-mail address. If it matches the address stored for the farm or the website's domain, you receive an edit link at once; otherwise we verify you with an SMS code sent to the farm's known phone number, or with a short manual check. The link is valid for 30 days; your changes appear immediately marked "under review" and become final after approval.
