About Frelinghuysen Arboretum
The Frelinghuysen Arboretum, a lovely 127-acre tract now surrounded by busy highways and office parks was once Whippany Farm. This estate was bequeathed to Morris County in 1969. Currently, the beautiful Colonial Revival mansion serves as headquarters for the Morris County Park Commission. The Frelinghuysen Arboretum is a regional center for horticultural activities, including educational programs and garden and flower shows. For park strollers, The Frelinghuysen Arboretum offers gardens, open fields, woodland and groves of flowering trees that bring serenity to our harried lives.
