This village, especially in RT 01/RW 06, deserves to be used as a place for Community Service activities in the form of using a garden by planting cayenne pepper using liquid organic fertilizer from onion extract. This is because residents in this area have a variety of livelihoods, namely as traders, horticultural farmers, catfish cultivators, and managing fields.
