<![CDATA[This community service project implemented a tree planting movement in Pecalukan Village, Prigen, Pasuruan, aiming for environmental greening and preservation. Addressing global environmental issues like deforestation and climate change, the initiative utilized the Participatory Action Research (PAR) method. The program involved active collaboration between local communities, the Grojogan Sewu Foundation, and UNSURI Surabaya students on April 27, 2025. Key stages included problem identification (FGD, observation), action planning with stakeholders (Grojogan Sewu Foundation, PERHUTANI, community), implementation through education and training on tree care, and continuous monitoring and documentation. The Grojogan Sewu Foundation, initially HIPPAM in 2006, became a legal entity in 2015, focusing on conservation. Seedlings were sourced from donations and air layering by the foundation. Post-planting care involved weekly monitoring, media replacement, thinning, fertilization, pest control, and river clean-up for flood prevention. This effort successfully fostered collective environmental awareness and yielded significant ecological benefits, such as improved air quality, erosion prevention, and land greening, contributing to community and ecosystem well-being.]]>
