<strong>Vineland</strong> (<strong>Vineland</strong> Historical and Antiquarian Soci) In the mid-1800s, Charles K. Landis, a visionary and entrepreneur, was looking for land that would be more adaptable to fruit than to grain and suitable also for a wide range of industries. In 1861, Landis developed a parcel of land just north of Millville. Landis set aside 1 square mile called the Borough of <strong>Vineland</strong> exclusively for homes, businesses, and industry. Beyond that 1 square mile, the land was designated for farming and became Landis Township. In 1952, the citizens of the borough and township voted to merge the two into the City of <strong>Vineland</strong>, which today remains the largest city in area in New Jersey. Known for its cultural and religious diversity, <strong>Vineland</strong>’s success in farming, business, and industry can be traced to its unique blend of early settlers, natives, and immigrants alike.<br />
