30 years ago, the environment and the equipment of traditional mushroom cultivation rooms around Dacun Township were simple and crude, with the room filled with many bugs, which was a torment for the farm staff. They could not modulate the temperature and humidity where mushrooms were grown. Their fate was in the hand of the God, so they could not control productivity. Then, the market of black fungus and mushrooms were occupied by mushrooms from China at lower prices. Fang Shi Wen decided to start a mushroom cultivation farm equipped with technical facilities to cultivate mushrooms, building aseptic and clean room and modern mushroom cultivation room with automatic temperature and humidity modulation, giving mushrooms an environment comparable to that of an advanced chip factory.
Mushroom Tribe adopts automated cultivating management. To improve traditional ways of cultivation, it took the lead in using bar-type cultivation frame and mobile net rack lateral cultivation method to cultivate mushrooms with high economic value, such as king oyster mushrooms, ganoderma, and tremella. It also introduced new types of mushrooms, some of which are obalonus, golden oyster mushrooms and pink oyster mushrooms, enriching mushroom kinds. By enterprise management, they aimed at building Q-YO brand. They were awarded Shen Nong Prize, the most honorable prize in agriculture realm, in 2006 because of their innovation and marketing concept which made them Taiwan agricultural technology pioneer. In December, 2007, Q-YO came to be the first mushroom cultivation plant to obtain ISO22000 food safety management system certification.

The Farm Manager, Fang Shi Wen, established Mushroom Tribe Ecological Leisure Farm on the philosophy of production, ecology and life. Aside from cultivating all kinds of mushrooms, Mushroom Tribe is also open to visitors, offering mushroom cultivation DIY and developing mushroom-related dietary supplements and beauty products in the hope that they can promote mushroom industry and inject creativity in agriculture.
