A Little About Us

How It All Started...

In 1923, Herbert “Buba” Humphreys, alongside his father Harry Humphreys, founded Kennesaw Fruit Company, harvesting oranges, pineapples, watermelons, and other crops. In 2025, Bubba’s great-grandson, August Kokus, founded The MayaNut Company, focused exclusively on cultivating the Alicastrum tree (Brosimum alicastrum) for the production of MayaNut™ flour—continuing his family’s Florida farming legacy.
