Abstract

This community service project aimed to educate elementary school students on sustainable agriculture through hands-on training in cultivating oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus) using JAKABA—a fermented mixture of coconut water and banana stem—as an organic growing medium and fertilizer. The training involved 15 students from grades 4 and 5 at Budi Mulya Elementary School and was conducted over two weeks using participatory and experiential learning methods. Results from pre- and post-training assessments indicated a significant increase in students’ knowledge about organic waste utilization, mushroom cultivation, and the benefits of JAKABA. The students showed high engagement and enthusiasm, with over 90% expressing interest in continuing the practice at home. Mushroom growth success reached 90%, demonstrating the effectiveness of JAKABA as a sustainable medium.The program successfully integrated environmental awareness, scientific learning, and life skills education. It also promoted character development and entrepreneurship among young learners. This initiative serves as a replicable model for environmentally-based learning in elementary education.

Abstract

Tempeh, a traditional Indonesian fermented soybean product, is highly nutritious but under-consumed by children due to its bland appearance and unfamiliar texture. This community service program aimed to enhance elementary school students’ interest in consuming tempeh through a participatory training that introduced character molds into the tempeh-making process. Conducted with 20 students aged 9–11 years, the intervention employed a pretest-posttest design to assess changes in tempeh preferences, knowledge, and willingness to consume and prepare tempeh. Results indicated significant improvements across all indicators: students’ liking of tempeh increased from 35% to 85%, their perception of its visual appeal rose from 25% to 90%, and willingness to try character-shaped tempeh reached 95%. The program not only improved students’ understanding of tempeh’s nutritional benefits but also engaged them in creative, hands-on food preparation that enhanced motivation and enjoyment. The findings support the use of experiential learning and visual food design in child nutrition education. This initiative effectively combined cultural food preservation with innovative teaching strategies. It demonstrates that integrating fun and creativity into traditional food education can promote healthier eating habits and strengthen local food identity among young learners. Future programs should consider scaling up and incorporating family and school-level involvement to achieve a broader and more sustainable impact.
