Bloomingdale Township is a civil township of Van Buren County in the U.S. state of Michigan. As of the 2020 census, the township population was 2,930.[3] It was established in 1845.[4]

The village of Bloomingdale is located within the township, and is the only incorporated town. The unincorporated and tiny crossroads community of Berlamont is on the line with Columbia Township. On the eastern boundary is the city of Gobles which straddles the line with Pine Grove Township. Though half of Gobles lies within Bloomingdale Township, by law cities are considered separate from townships, though villages are not.
