Vineland: South Jersey Agriculture and a Planned Temperance Town
Vineland was founded in 1861 by Charles K. Landis as a planned agricultural community on 20,000 acres of pine barrens in Cumberland County. Landis divided the land into five- and ten-acre farm lots and sold them to settlers, many of whom were Italian immigrants with experience in viticulture. The name Vineland refers directly to the expectation that grapes would form the primary crop.
Thomas Bramwell Welch developed the process for pasteurizing unfermented grape juice at his Vineland pharmacy in 1869, creating what became Welch's Grape Juice. The Welch Foods cooperative retained its connection to the area for more than a century. Vineland is also the site of the Kimble Glass plant, a major producer of laboratory glassware, and was for decades associated with poultry farming.
The city consolidated with surrounding Landis Township in 1952, which is why Vineland today covers 69 square miles, the largest municipal area in New Jersey by land. The population is approximately 61,000. The Inspira Medical Center Vineland serves as a regional hospital.
