My name is Christine Herzog, I am German and have been working in the Swiss agriculture sector for many years.
I was born and raised on an agricultural farm near Aschaffenburg, Germany. After finishing school, I was trained in an ornamental plant nursery and then got my university degree in agriculture. Plants and seeds fascinate me and I consider to work in this area as important and fulfilling.
