However, knowledge of proper and safe processing of herbal medicine remains inadequate. An initial assessment of 30 PKK women in RT 2, Somopuro Lor, Salatiga, showed that 25 respondents (83.3%) had never received education on herbal medicine processing and still had limited knowledge regarding processing and storage procedures. This community service activity aimed to improve the knowledge of PKK women in RT 2, Salatiga City, regarding the proper and safe processing of herbal medicine made from household ingredients. A service-learning approach was employed through health education, herbal medicine preparation demonstrations, and interactive discussions. The activity involved 30 PKK women from RT 2, Somopuro Lor, Salatiga. Participants' knowledge was evaluated using pre-test and post-test assessments before and after the educational intervention. The data were analysed using the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. The Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test showed a significant difference in participants' knowledge before and after the educational intervention (Z = -4.793; p = 0.000). Education on kitchen-based herbal medicine processing was effective in improving PKK women in RT 2 Somopuro Lor, Salatiga's knowledge of proper and safe herbal medicine processing.
