About us
About Bella Vista Farm
Hello! We are Mary and John Renaldi—owners of Bella Vista Farm, a small, family-run u-pick farm nestled in the heart of Fennville, Michigan.
We are honored to continue the legacy started by Gary and Sandy Crane, who lovingly cultivated this land and built a tradition that has now spanned 40 u-pick seasons. In 2024, we were grateful for the opportunity to purchase the farm from the Cranes—thankful for their commitment to preserving the land as a working farm rather than allowing it to be developed. We are proud to carry that mission forward: providing fresh, local produce to our community while offering an authentic West Michigan farm experience for all who visit.
At Bella Vista Farm, we believe there is something truly special about slowing down and connecting with the land. Whether you’re strolling through the orchards on a warm summer morning, filling baskets with sun-ripened fruit, or gathering armfuls of fresh-cut flowers, each visit is meant to be simple, beautiful, and memorable. Our hope is that your time here feels like a step away from the busyness of everyday life—a place where families can create traditions, children can explore freely, and friends can gather and enjoy the richness of the season. From our fields to your table, everything we grow is rooted in care, intention, and a deep love for this land.
White Barn Flower
Farming is close to our hearts. John’s farming interests began during childhood visits to his grandparents’ farm in Indiana, while Mary, a Fennville native, has always had a deep love for flowers and the natural beauty of the area. Together with our daughters, Bella and Julia, we are excited to embark on this new adventure and carry on the cherished traditions of this land.
In 2019, we launched White Barn Flower Co., and it has been a joy to share our blooms locally, especially at the Holland Farmers Market. Now, our flower fields are blooming right here at the farm! From peonies to dahlias, sunflowers, and beyond, our fields are bursting with color all season long.
We are proud to be part of Fennville’s vibrant farming community. West Michigan is a truly special place, and we’re excited to welcome you to our beautiful, family-friendly farm.
Thank you for supporting local agriculture. We can’t wait to see you at Bella Vista Farm!
