New Jersey earns its nickname with hidden, historic and unexpected green spaces. Sure, New Jersey has its signature showstoppers—sweeping botanical gardens, tree-filled arboretums and Colonial estates with centuries-old landscapes. But the real magic lies in the unexpected. Think secret gardens in Hoboken and Lambertville, a Dutch-style windmill rising over Holland Farms, a sensory garden tucked into Laurelwood, a Japanese tea house in Bordentown, Versailles-inspired bronzes at Georgian Court University, an ever-changing corn maze theme at Stony Hill Farms... the list goes on. Across the state, garden museums, groves, vineyards and family orchards invite you to roam, reflect and reconnect with nature. 14 2026 New Jersey Travel Guide THIS PAGE: BEACH PLUM FARM.
