Urban farming was chosen because it can overcome land limitations while reducing plastic waste. The service activities were carried out using a sercive leraning approach which began with coordination, continued with socialization, and hands-on practice of making planting media. Periodic reviews are carried out to monitor plant growth. Results The Urban farming program not only strengthens local food security but also provides solutions to environmental and economic problems by empowering the community through the appropriate use of land and waste.
