Pumpkins are a variety of winter squash that are native to North America. A member of the Cucurbitaceae (gourd) family, pumpkins are an important symbol of Halloween, a time when they are decorated and turned into jack-o'-lanterns. The flesh and the seeds are also widely valued for their culinary and nutritive applications. Pumpkin seeds are a rich source of important fatty acids, vitamins, minerals and other phytonutrients.

Our Organic Pumpkin Seed Oil is expeller pressed from premium quality, raw organic pumpkin seeds. No solvents or chemicals are used. It is then carefully filtered and packaged to maintain the purity, freshness and beneficial properties of this remarkably nutritive, organic oil.

As with all our organic ingredients, our Organic Pumpkin Seed Oil is certified organic by CCOF.
