Come and join a hike and picnic at Frelinghuysen Arboretum for earth day! Frelinghuysen arboretum is a 127 acre arboretum with multiple unique flower beds including tulips, a rose garden and trees including cherry blossoms! The home and property was once a summer home to the Frelinghuysen family. The main structure was built in the late 1800's and later gifted to the Morris Parks commission in the 1960's.

After the hike we will have a picnic on the great lawn in front of the main building.
