Abstract

The potential for utilizing the natural resources of Gunung Manik Village remains largely untapped. Abundant natural commodities such as coffee, cloves, cardamom, and others are available. Utilizing land through intercropping in coffee plantations provides dual benefits for farmers, including beekeeping of Apis Mellifera species. The goal of community empowerment is to develop the natural potential through honey cultivation found in the forests of Gunung Manik Village. The method used involves workshops for training in beekeeping management, honey harvesting, and the transfer of Apis Mellifera forest bee colonies into honey bee cultivation boxes in coffee plantations. The outcome of this activity is an increase in the understanding and skills of residents in harvesting forest honey and transferring bee colonies into cultivation boxes.

Abstract

Coastal areas not only serve as the economic hub for local communities engaged in fishing but also for Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs). Due to their geographic proximity to the sea, coastal communities involved in MSMEs face some challenges in marketing their products, thus limiting their market reach. One of the hurdles experienced by coastal communities is a lack of understanding of technology usage in digital marketing. The objective of this community service is to educate MSMEs in coastal areas about product branding. The method employed involves providing training sessions. By the end of the program, MSME operators will have designed logos for their products and can begin transitioning to online sales.

Abstract

Character education strengthening (CES) is a key factor in shaping children's personalities. Besides at home, character education should also be implemented in schools and social environments. In an effort to prepare the golden generation of 2045, the government is strengthening the character of the younger generation to have an advantage in the 21st-century global competition. This activity aims to instill character education during the Covid-19 pandemic by increasing the learning spirit, even though learning is done online and from home to avoid crowds. The method of implementing this activity is through participatory community empowerment using the participatory rural appraisal (PRA) model. Some of the achievements of this community service include: 1) outdoor activities or nature contemplation; 2) learning at TPA and Quran recitation to increase devotion to Allah SWT; 3) educational games outside the classroom to enhance nationalism and teamwork; 4) exploring students' potential and recognizing their intelligence through creativity contests; and 5) student learning motivation.

Additionally, partners gained a better understanding of the importance of hygiene and food safety. Digital marketing via Instagram has helped the products become more widely recognized and favored by the public.

Abstract

Tangguh Waste Bank is a newly established waste bank located in Dusun Wonosuko, Magelang Regency, which has been successful in processing inorganic waste. However, there is no management of organic waste yet. The Wonosuko Asri Farmers' Women Group (KWT), as the waste bank manager, still has limited knowledge about farming and inadequate equipment. The purpose of this activity is to help KWT Wonosuko Asri improve their skills in organic waste management and transform vacant land into a nutritional garden as a step to increase food security. The focus of this activity is 1) increasing public awareness of stunting, 2) teaching compost making, 3) providing counseling on organic waste management, and 4) holding children's wide games to promote healthy eating patterns. The implementation of the activity begins with socialization, counseling, practice, mentoring, and evaluation. The results achieved through this activity include the formation of the KWT Dusun Wonosuko Asri organizational structure to implement follow-up programs, the creation of nutritional gardens and liquid organic fertilizer, and the stimulation of children to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
