The Family Medicinal Plants (TOGA) Program aims to improve community health independence through the cultivation and utilization of herbal plants. This community service activity was carried out in Sorek Satu Village, Pelalawan Regency, in August 2025. The activity stages included an initial survey, coordination with village officials, the creation of a TOGA garden with several types of medicinal plants, community education through counseling and freezing, and monitoring for infectious diseases. The results showed that the TOGA garden pilot was successfully realized with the active participation of residents. The community gained knowledge about the benefits of various plants such as turmeric, aloe vera, ginger, lemongrass, and others, and taught them how to make simple herbal concoctions. The participatory approach was seen through community involvement in every stage of the activity, based on observations during the implementation of TOGA planting activities, from land preparation to TOGA plant care. This activity increased community awareness and independence in health management, not only related to hypertension, but also promoted overall health
