PESONA (Healthy Medicinal and Food Plants in Home Gardens) is one of the community service programs conducted by KKN Team II of Universitas Diponegoro in Caruban Village. The program focuses on utilizing available land and home gardens as productive spaces through the cultivation of various medicinal and food plants.
The program aims to optimize the use of available land, particularly home gardens, so that they can serve a meaningful purpose rather than remain unused spaces. The cultivated plants also serve as an educational medium for introducing different plant species, their benefits, cultivation methods, and their potential applications in everyday life.
