<![CDATA[Kebontunggul Village in Mojokerto, with its abundant natural resources, has a golden opportunity to develop into an herbal village. The fertile land in this village serves as a habitat for teak plants, producing leaves rich in bioactive compounds. A collaboration between the University of Surabaya, Widya Mandala Surabaya Catholic University, Village-owned Enterprises, the Tourism Awareness Group, and the Family Welfare and Empowerment Organization, facilitated by the Ministry of Education and Culture, processed the teak leaves into powder and tea. This collaboration aimed to improve public health and open up economic opportunities for the local community.
