A farm visit with tradition, craftsmanship, and fine rapeseed oil
At Hof Meyer zu Stieghorst in Bielefeld-Heepen, the rapeseed oil manufacturer opens its doors for a tour giving a personal insight into a family business that has been farming for about 200 years. Since 2000, the farm has additionally evolved into an energy and production operation; today, a high-quality cooking oil is produced in the in-house manufacturer Mey’S Rapeseed Oil. The tour will be led by owner Karl-Ludwig Meyer zu Stieghorst himself. The event takes place on June 27, 2026, from 15:00 to 16:30 and costs 12.00 euros per person, which includes 5 euros for a bottle of rapeseed oil. Registration is required.
