These products are produced organically, without the use of chemicals.

The produced seeds are then distributed wholesale and as planting seeds to local farming households.

With a dedicated production team and an eagerness to learn, always staying updated on new technologies and products, the village has brought many clean, safe, and high-quality mushroom products to the market, meeting the current demands of consumers.

The mushroom cultivation and medicinal herb production industry have significantly contributed to the local economy, providing employment opportunities for the labor force in the area.
