In recent years, to help regenerate local communities, the Council for Cultural Affairs has guided counties and cities in setting up theme museums related to local life. With funding from the Council of Agriculture, the CCA and Taichung County Government, Taiwan's only mushroom museum was set up in Wufeng, which is known as "the homeland of mushrooms."
近年來，文建會為營造社區文化，輔導各縣市建立展現地方特色的主題展示館，有「菇類娘家」之稱的霧峰，遂在行政院農委會、文建會、台中縣政府等單位贊助下，設立了台灣唯一的菇類文化館。
