HORTICULTUREREEVES-REED ARBORETUM IS A 13.5 ACRE ESTATE. IT WAS SELECTED TO BE PUT ON THE NATIONAL REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES IN 1993 AND ON THE NJ REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES IN 1993 AS WELL. TODAY THE ESTATE IS A SUBURBAN ARBORETUM, PUBLIC GARDEN, AND ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION CENTER.THE MAIN HOUSE (WISNER HOUSE) WAS CONSTRUCTED IN 1889. IT WAS DESIGNED BY THE ARCHITECTURAL FIRM OF BABB COOK AND WILLARD AND IS AN EXAMPLE OF THE COLONIAL REVIVAL STYLE HOUSE. THIS STYLE HOUSE IS REPRESENTATIVE OF THE ARCHITECTURE THAT WAS PREDOMINANT IN THE NORTHEAST DURING THIS PERIOD.THE FORMAL GARDENS ARE REPRESENTATIVE OF THE 1920S ERA OF LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE. A FORMAL ROSE GARDEN, AZALEA AND RHODODENDRON, PERENNIAL BORDERS AND ROCK GARDENS COMPRISE THE FORMAL AREAS. SOME OF THE AREAS ARE HANDICAP ACCESSIBLE, AND IN 2017, THE ARBORETUM COMPLETED PHASE ONE OF A 2-PHASED ACCESSIBILITY PROJECT. BEYOND THE FORMAL GARDENS, MANY EDUCATIONAL GARDEN AREAS HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED TO TEACH THE PUBLIC ABOUT PLANTS THAT ARE USED HORTICULTURALLY, AS WELL AS NATIVE SPECIES THAT HAVE BEEN REINTRODUCED INTO THE GARDEN. THE COLLECTIONS ARE APPROPRIATELY IDENTIFIED AND SIGNAGE IS UTILIZED TO EDUCATE THE PUBLIC. THERE IS A 672 SQUARE FOOT GREENHOUSE THAT HOUSES COLLECTIONS OF ORCHIDS AND CACTI AND SUCCULENTS AS WELL AS OLIVE, COFFEE, BANANA AND ORANGE TREES. IT IS ALSO USED AS A CLASSROOM.FOR 10 MONTHS OF THE YEAR THE GLACIAL BOWL TO THE SOUTH OF THE MAIN HOUSE IS A CERTIFIED NATIVE WILDLIFE HABITAT THAT HAS BEEN PLANTED TO ATTRACT SONG BIRDS, BEES AND BUTTERFLIES. WILDFLOWERS AND FERNS HAVE BEEN PLANTED TO DEMONSTRATE THE SUSTAINABILITY OF NATIVE LANDSCAPING. WE MANAGE 6 ACRES OF NATIVE HARDWOOD FOREST AS AN EDUCATIONAL TOOL TO TEACH THE MANY SCHOOL AGE CHILDREN WHO COME TO THE ARBORETUM.

On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
