How It All Started…

In 1923, Herbert “Buba” Humphreys, alongside his father Harry Humphreys, founded Kennesaw Fruit Company and grew Florida crops including oranges, pineapples, and watermelons. In 2025, Buba’s great-grandson, August Kokus, founded The MayaNut Company—focused on cultivating the Alicastrum tree (Brosimum alicastrum) and developing MayaNut™ flour from its seeds.
