The stages of the verticulture method were preparation of tools and materials, seeding, filling the soil in polybags, transferring seeds, and monitoring which was carried out in the morning and during the day. The vegetable seeds used include cabbage seeds, mustard greens, chilies, lettuce, celery, purple eggplant, fresh eggplant, water spinach, onions and spinach. To support plant growth and productivity, composting and application of compost to plant seeds was also carried out in this service activity. The result of implementing the Sustainable Food House and making compost was the improvement of the skills of the local people, so they were able to continue the program with village officials and achieve the goals they want to achieve.Keywords: Vegetable Seeds, Home Yard, Compost, Verticulture]]>
