Why is the accordion in the woodwind family?

The Accordion is classified in the woodwind family because it produces sound through the vibration of air, similar to woodwind instruments. When the bellows are expanded and contracted, air flows past reeds inside the instrument, causing them to vibrate and create sound. Although it has a keyboard and buttons like some keyboard instruments, its method of sound production aligns it more closely with woodwinds. Additionally, the materials used in the construction of the reeds often include wood, reinforcing its classification.
