The Kudzu Coalition is pro-active and doing things. We prefer to spend our time in action rather than to be restricted by organization and bureaucracy.

The selection of the Board of Directors is very, very important. We are blessed with a small number of hands-on, action minded citizens who are passionate about making a difference and doing it quickly — in just a few months, not years. Passion is an apt word to describe the driving force among these leaders.

By design there are few meetings — less than one per month. Communications among the Board of Directors is primarily by email.

When especially talented individuals show commitment to the cause and passion for making a difference in this way, they are asked to join the Board of Directors. We look for special aptitudes: Webmaster skills, Internet search skills, inventiveness, and knowledge of farm equipment, horticulture, public relations, good research practices, botany, and writing, to name a few.

Today, Coalition activities are guided by a diverse group of volunteers who share a happy passion for exploring ways of reining in kudzu without herbicides.
