The event took place at the meeting hall of RW 06, Dukuh Mrican, Kalurahan Catur Tunggal, Kapanewon Depok, introducing various ‘Living Pharmacy’ and nutritious vegetables that are highly beneficial and can support family food resilience. Following the meeting featuring speakers Dr. Djoko Santosa, M.Sc, and Dr. Dra. Rr. Upiek Ngesti Wibawaning Astuti, DAP&E, M.Biomed, the activity proceeded with land preparation in four Neighborhood Associations (RW), namely RW 04, 06, 07, and 08.


This initiative, ongoing from October to November, prepared land in these four RWs for planting TOGA and vegetable seedlings, nurturing them, conducting planting, maintenance, harvesting, and post-harvest monitoring. One of the prepared lands covers an area of 540 square meters, managed by the village fund, capable of accommodating TOGA seedlings and various vegetable plants. Additionally, utilizing lands along the riverbanks has provided positive engagement for PKK members, particularly those involved in the Srikandi Women Farmers Group. Geographically, the Mrican hamlet (specifically RW 04, 06, 07, and 08) is considered a suburban area since its environment exhibits urban characteristics. To the west, there are two large universities, while to the east, there are densely populated settlements, characterized by steep conditions, separated by Gejayan Street.

The dissemination and practical guidance on land cultivation procedures, planting, and fertilization were conducted in September by Dwi Ummi Siswanti, S.Si., M.Sc, and Soenarwan Hery Poerwanto, S.Si., M.Kes.. The vegetables planted include chili, tomatoes, white eggplants, purple eggplants, red spinach, green spinach, cabbage, purple cabbage, lettuce, celery, etc. Additionally, a hydroponic system was established for lettuce. As for the prepared TOGA, they include red betel leaves, green betel leaves, turmeric, temulawak, lesser galangal, red ginger, lemongrass, sand ginger, and several other plants.
