Abstract

Home gardens are land assets that are often not fully utilized by the community. However, if managed properly, they can help meet a family’s food needs. This community service program aims to encourage residents of RT 07 in Sawah Lebar Baru Village to use their home gardens more productively through a green garden program. The activities included providing chili and eggplant seedlings and surveying backyard conditions with the assistance of the RT 07 committee. The seedlings were sown on June 17, 2026, transplanted into polybags on June 29, 2026, and distributed to residents on July 10, 2026. Residents received one hundred chili and eggplant seedlings. The results show that residents began planting the seedlings in their backyards, making the environment greener and more pleasant. Residents also obtained produce for their own consumption, thereby reducing daily food expenses. In addition to fostering mutual cooperation and strengthening community bonds, this activity increased awareness of household food self-sufficiency. The program demonstrates that distributing seedlings with simple guidance is an effective way to build sustainable green backyards.
