The Free Nutritious Meal Program (MBG) generates organic waste that may pollute the environment if not properly managed. This community service activity aimed to improve the knowledge and skills of school members in processing MBG organic waste into bioactivators, biopesticides, compost, and liquid organic fertilizer (LOF). A Participatory Action Approach was applied through observation, socialization, training, hands-on practice, mentoring, and evaluation involving 25 ninth-grade students of SMPI Ma'arif Singosari. Results showed that participants were able to separate organic and inorganic waste and produce bioactivators, compost, and approximately 30 liters of LOF, which was used to maintain plants in the school environment. The activity is concluded to have improved participants' knowledge and environmental awareness and shows potential as a replicable model of school-based organic waste management.
