<![CDATA[This community service activity aimed to enhance the knowledge and skills of housewives in Lubuk Lingkuk Village regarding the utilization of *kelulut* (stingless bee) honey to create economically valuable food products. The activity employed a participatory empowerment approach, comprising stages of needs identification, preparation, outreach, training, hands-on practice, and evaluation. Fifteen housewives participated in the training, which utilized demonstration and "learning-by-doing" methods to cover *kelulut* honey mochi production, packaging, production cost calculation, pricing, and marketing. The results demonstrated that participants were able to independently execute the entire process, from mochi production to packaging. Evaluation revealed an 83% increase in participants' knowledge, based on pre-test and post-test results. This initiative provided participants with the knowledge, skills, and motivation to transform *kelulut* honey into value-added processed products. The training holds the potential to boost the productivity of housewives, create home-based business opportunities, and foster family economic self-reliance based on local resources.]]>
