Projects
SPROut projects are focused around the use of plants to provide or augment ecosystem services and include processes like phytoremediation, restoration of degraded riparian areas, wetland treatment of wastewater, urban stormwater management, and others (see "research priorities"). The Oregon Garden is uniquely situated to facilitate many of these projects through its diverse environmental areas and ability to provide outreach to both professionals and the general public. On this page, you will find a list of current or completed projects in the Northwest that use plants for environmental purposes, including projects done by SPROut partners and projects done by other organizations with related interests.
Here is a list of SPROut projects, some current, some completed. Click on a title to see much more information. To see other projects worth looking at, outside of SPROut's direct involvement but in line with SPROut's mission, see the Case Study Library.
