This article aims to describe the empowerment process of Gampingrowo Village through the production of mustard green ice cream as a healthy and innovative local food product. The program employed the Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) approach consisting of five stages: discovery, dream, design, define, and reflection. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation, and analyzed qualitatively. The findings indicate that community members improved their skills in processing mustard greens into healthy ice cream with appealing flavors, while also developing awareness of local food innovation. Participants initiated the formation of small business groups to sustain the project. This activity contributes to the development of local food processing knowledge, community empowerment, and creative economy practices based on village potential. The model can serve as a replicable framework for similar communities with abundant local resources.
