![]() Having been involved from everything from finance-creating the first peer network in the entertainment industry-and reinventing the manufacturing of the bar of soap, which traditionally took five to seven weeks to make and creating a proprietary process that cut that time down to 30 seconds, I was in the market for a new challenge with unlimited potential. Greg, you’ve had a very colorful, interesting life and have spearheaded a number of successful companies, what made you think about launching a hemp oil/CBD enterprise? Once we understood the dynamics of cannabis extractions, and the plant’s potential I felt as though I was looking at the beginning of the internet in the 1990s all over again. The second part was creating the addition of a high level plant based omega 3 oil that’s added to the hemp extract giving it high potency in its effect. ![]() With those two things in mind we created an extraction that only utilizes hot air and a vapor process without any solvents and the complete extraction is done in just 45 seconds. There were two things we knew four years ago when developing the product: 1) we had to find or create an advanced technology enabling a much more potent extraction and 2) what could we do to the finished hemp extract that in combination created a better consumer experience. You have to be careful with claims because of the FDA and while hemp extractions have incredible importance in the human condition today, it’s like all things in the holistic world, it has undeniable benefits for consumers.

So, what is it about this man and this company that has so many intrigued and taking notice? I think it’s time we find out. A dinner with Greg Kerber is a laugh-a-minute, at once intellectual, silly and memorable-all aspects that reflect perfectly in his chosen name for the company he’s convinced he was born to lead. I should know-not only has Kerber become a close friend, I’m also, if I’m allowed to say, of the storytelling persuasion as well.

Kerber says he’s always had a passion for life-enhancing natural products and possessed legit experience creating pathways to growth for companies of all sizes. Though the details of his fascinating life are certainly worthy of a Hollywood script, for the purposes of this particular story, we’ll focus on his latest, and maybe, greatest venture, Gnome Serum. Greg Kerber, Founder and CEO of Johnsonville, NY-based hemp oil company Gnome Serum, is interesting in the same way, say, Tiger Woods is pretty good at golf. A happy surprise was that the fragrance, despite being sandalwood and patchouli, was mildly warm and spicy and didn’t make me smell like a stoner stereotype!
