This community service activity aims to enhance the knowledge and skills of the 'Usaha Maju Bersama' farmer group in Sungai Malaya Village, West Kalimantan, in producing taro flour as a healthy food commodity based on the creative economy. The methods employed include community education, science and technology diffusion, training, and the Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach. Data analysis was conducted by comparing pretest and posttest results given before and after the training. The activity resulted in a significant increase in partners' knowledge and skills in making taro flour, from 56% to 87%. The implication of this activity is that partners now possess flouring machines, enabling them to produce taro flour.
