Matthias Plath

Focus areas: botany, medicinal plant cultivation and processing, plant quality

The world of plants has been his professional calling for many years – and his personal passion. He is fascinated by plants in all their diversity: their beauty, their essence and their healing power.
He has worked at Ceres Heilmittel AG in Kesswil since 2003. As head of production, he has been responsible for manufacturing the Ceres remedies since 2005, accompanying the plant along its entire journey: from seed through cultivation, harvest and processing to the finished 20 ml bottle. This daily work gives him a close and authentic connection to each plant and its development.
Passing on his knowledge is a particular concern of his. As a speaker, he conveys the distinctive Ceres philosophy and a wealth of knowledge about medicinal plants, their processing and their signatures – combining many years of hands-on experience with a lively, vivid and inspiring way of teaching.
