Abstract

This activity aims to increase housewives' productivity in the Brantas river basin, Merjosari Malang, through organic vegetable cultivation. The method is done by training and practicing how to manage organic waste into compost, which can be used to grow vegetables in narrow areas using the verticulture system. The data obtained show that the community's awareness not to throw garbage in the river is relatively high, namely 100%. Only 10% of residents throw garbage in their yards because garbage officers always pick up trash. The mothers have separated their waste, starting from the kitchen and organic waste. The number of mothers who sort organic waste and use it as compost is still relatively low, at 35%. Therefore, the team's activities focused on providing counseling related to household organic waste as compost raw material, which could be used as a growing medium for vertical vegetable gardens. Extension activities were carried out two times, namely providing material and practice. The primary informations given were organic waste as compost and the method of verticulture cultivation of vegetables
