In Makassar City, Indonesia, challenges in urban agriculture development stem from a lack of understanding and community skills. This research and development (R&D) study aimed to enhance community skills through counseling using an urban agricultural education model. The OASIS module was developed, and its effectiveness was tested using a paired sample t-test with 20 respondents in an experimental group and 20 in a control group. The OASIS extension model proved valid, practical, and effective in improving participants' skills, with the experimental group showing a significant skill increase after receiving urban farming counseling.
