Join in kudzu removal initiatives along the Reed Creek Greenway. The first workshop of 2023 is “Weaving Birdhouses With Kudzu Vines” Learn to identify kudzu vines when the leaves are dormant; Harvest old-growth vines and runner vines for bird houses, basketry, woven fencing, and wreath making; hot kudzu root tea samples will be served.
## What problems does kudzu cause?
An invasive plant as fast-growing as kudzu outcompetes everything from native grasses to fully mature trees by shading them from the sunlight they need to photosynthesize. This loss of native plants harms other plants, insects and animals that adapted alongside them, leading to cascading effects throughout an ecosystem.
Over time, these effects of habitat loss can lead to species extinctions and a loss of overall biodiversity.
