True to his name, Eric is a friend to man and critter alike. A life-long-Alaskan he has a variety of skills and talents with technology and computers. However, his focus and interest is in mainstreaming the hemp industry. Smoking is the only thing you can’t do with hemp. Beyond that all things are possible and as the owner of Greener Side AK, organizer of the Alaska Hemp Museum, and staple member of the Alaska Hemp Fest organizing committee, Eric lives proudly for what he believes in. ARK is inspired by having Eric guiding our path.
