The long lasting condition of the Wonosadi Forest at Beji Village , Ngawen Subdistrict, Gunung Kidul Regency in Yogyakarta has drawn the attention of the KKN PPM UGM. The preserved forest keeps several collections of old vegetations. At the top of Ngenuman in the middle of the forest, we can find the four hundred years old Munggur tree (Javanese Tamarind).
