Berger Fountain Restoration

Together we can restore Berger Fountain, preserving beauty and history for generations to come!

In 2021, Friends of Loring Park and Citizens for a Loring Park Community, as part of the Berger Fountain Committee, contracted with premier landscape architectural firm Damon-Farber to do a pre-design study to rehabilitate Berger (Dandelion) Fountain. This Minneapolis icon needs help. 

The below-ground infrastructure and above-ground condition of the fountain are deplorable. The Dandelion Fountain itself will look the same, and it will work. Damon-Farber will look at the setting, the water basin, plaza, seating near the fountain, and sustainability (especially of water), and produce cost estimates for the entire project.  Read the latest project updates here.

Every donation helps restore this Minneapolis' Iconic Landmark!
