Reeves-Reed Arboretum in Summit is one of the state's best sites for outdoor recreation and learning about the local ecosystem. Even during the winter, the grounds are alive with events like the famous Maple Sugaring Festival. However, the garden and learning center truly come into their own when the flowers start to bloom - and they're about to open again for one of the most colorful spring festivals in New Jersey. Daffodil Day, held every year and arriving on April 14 this year, is a family-friendly event celebrating those iconic yellow flowers that let you know spring is here. Not only is it a great opportunity to see the fields in full bloom, but the whole family will be able to take part in activities and pick up some delicious treats. It's the best daffodil festival in New Jersey, and we can't wait for it to arrive. The 2024 event is being held from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on event day, and the organizers promise it'll once again be filled with flower power and natural beauty.
