Tea tourism integration,
Yangxiqiao Town, Taoyuan, Hunan,
to create a characteristic ecological town
Yangxiqiao town in
Taoyuan County is rich in natural resources and is known as "Jinshan
Linhai tea town". When you enter Yangxi bridge, you can enjoy the
forest and tea, and then you can feel the most natural and fresh
rural flavor. In recent years, Yangxiqiao adheres to the development
concept of "ecological town, cultural and tourism town, strong town
with characteristics", takes "tea tourism culture" as the leader,
and focuses on creating ecological leisure tourism cultural belt, so
that the people of the whole town step forward to a happy and
well-off life.
My current location is
yanwuxi village in Yangxiqiao town. This village is famous for its
tea production. You can see behind me a large ecological tea garden.
Every year, nearly 40000 students come here to carry out research
activities.
Ten years ago, yanwuxi
village was a little-known mountain village. Although the air here
is fresh and the environment is beautiful, the villagers all depend
on growing grain and vegetables to make a living. The traditional
farming mode can only make a living, and almost has nothing to do
with a well-off life.
Guo Feng, Secretary of
the Party branch of yanwuxi village, Yangxiqiao town: The surface is
cool, and there is no rice yield. Later, through the adjustment of
land structure, all of the 680 households in the whole village were
planted with big leaf tea, and the benefit of planting big leaf tea
was better than that of planting rice.
Over
the years, yanwuxi village has been successfully established as one
of the first batch of practical education bases for primary and
secondary school students in Hunan Province by adjusting measures to
local conditions and adhering to the combination of traditional tea
industry and rural tourism industry.
The children came here,
first to breathe fresh air, the second learned a lot of tea
knowledge, and the third trained their hands-on ability.
I often see tea in
textbooks and drink tea in my life. I have never seen what tea looks
like. Today I came to this base, saw tea and picked some tea. I
think it is very meaningful.
In the past, young
people in our village were all outside (working), not at home. I
don't feel much energy in the village. After a series of base
construction, many schools come to our village to carry out research
activities. Then slowly, I feel that one of the village's popularity
is booming, and the second one drives the village's economy.
Now, there are two
municipal leading enterprises in the village, with 680 mu of
high-standard ecological tea garden, driving more than 500 people to
work, and the average annual income of tea farmers has reached 20000
yuan.
The village still
focuses on the integration of tea and tourism, and further deepens
the research and study travel, the student education base, and the
rough and fine processing of tea.
In recent years,
Yangxiqiao town closely around the "mountain", "tea" and "forest",
constantly excavates the tea culture, and fully develops "one
village, one industry". The once poor villages have already been
lifted out of poverty and embarked on the road of prosperity.
Caijiatang village used
to be a provincial-level poverty-stricken village. Since the start
of industrial poverty alleviation in 2016, by adopting the business
model of leading enterprises + professional cooperatives + base +
large tea growers, it has helped 125 villagers in the whole village
develop the tea industry, with an annual per capita income of more
than 1500 yuan. In 2017, it successfully lifted out of poverty and
became a beautiful rural demonstration site at the county level.
More and more young people also choose to return to the village and
join the upsurge of Rural Revitalization.
In the processing
workshop of JUNHE wild tea Development Co., Ltd. in Caijiatang
village, Zhan Wei, a 31 year old leader, is busy making this
season's new tea with workers. Zhan Wei once worked in foreign trade
in Shanghai. In 2015, he gave up his gold collar job with an annual
salary of 300000 and returned to his hometown to set up a tea
factory to lead the villagers to grow and make tea. With the
accumulated network resources and the spirit of young people who
dare to think and do, the sales performance of JUNHE tea has
increased year by year.
At the same time, Zhan Wei took the lead in setting up a
professional cooperative to purchase villagers' tea at a price
higher than the market price. According to the standard of 300-500
yuan per mu, he paid the old tea garden reclamation subsidy, and
absorbed more than 1600 villagers from the surrounding areas.
Nowadays, the villagers regard JUNHE wild tea company as their own
industry, full of energy.
Zhan Wei, general
manager of JUNHE wild tea Development Co., Ltd.: I think it's very
lucky to be able to go back to my hometown, do something I like, and
promote our tea to all parts of the country, so as to drive our
villagers out of poverty and get rich and increase their income.
At present, more than
8000 people have participated in tea planting and production in
Yangxiqiao Town, accounting for 44% of the total population of the
town, and the tea planting area is more than 45000 mu. There are 5
large-scale tea enterprises and 12 tea processing plants in JUNHE,
Chunfeng, yanwuxi, Jiangzhe and xianchijie, with an annual
comprehensive output value of more than 400 million yuan.
Huang Luyao, Secretary
of the Party committee of Yangxiqiao Town, Taoyuan County: promote
industrial upgrading and increase support for non poor households'
new agricultural subjects and characteristic industries. To create a
demonstration film, we should pay attention to the harmonious
development of Rural Revitalization and local cultural elements, and
give play to the leading role of the demonstration film. Actively
explore the new mode of tea tourism combination and cultural tourism
combination. Relying on the resources of green water, green
mountains, ancient tea garden construction and local culture, we
will build an eco-tourism industry chain with Yangxiqiao
characteristics, and effectively connect the overall poverty
alleviation and rural revitalization, and open a good situation for
the revitalization of the 14th five year plan.
