Yangmu Shiitake Mushrooms

Last updated 2026-11-15 — Yangmu Shiitake Mushrooms are a specialty industry of Yangmu Town in Chaotian District. Introduced in the 1990s using technology from Zhejiang, this new specialty industry is mainly distributed across villages such as Wazi, Baiyun, Yuansi, and Wenbi in Yangmu Town, Chaotian District. The mushrooms are cultivated using natural organic materials without pesticides, with full quality control throughout the process. They are plump in size, dense in texture, and possess a unique aroma and mouthfeel, making them a true "gourmet treasure among mushrooms." The ecological environment of Yangmu Town in Chaotian District is superior, suitable for the growth of a wide variety of crops, making it a prime area for shiitake production. Currently, Chaotian District’s Yangmu Town has established one edible mushroom export production base, and an integrated production and sales model is beginning to take shape. Efforts are underway to build it into a shiitake export base in northern Sichuan. In 2012, the annual production of Yangmu Shiitake Mushrooms reached 58 million bags. The mushrooms are known for their high quality, excellent flavor, and high flower mushroom yield, making them highly popular among consumers and widely sold across the country.
