Vertical garden is quite similar with vertical farming in which both of them emphasize on optimizing building space to be cultivated with agricultural plants. IGAF boards - Mega Fitria, Angga Dwi I, Hanny Zuyinah and Orita Mega Delani - committed a real action to educate students of SD N 4 Jambu of understanding what vertical farming is.

In other hand, IGAF also took responsible in engaging students within implementing vertical farming system in the school. In this project, IGAF attempted to utilize used bootles and organic fertilizer to cultivating agricultural plants. It was due to accelerating programme of Climate Smart Agriculture emphasizing on reducing GHGs.

There were 50 students involved with some agendas. In project execution, IGAF committee explained and taught students of SD N 4 Jambu to know well whatis agriculture and climate change firstly. After this all committee told students about vertical farming including what vertical farming, plants used, methode used, and techology used.
