No, it's not :) Reed instuments are instruments that you use a piece of wood (a 'reed') on the mouthpiece. You don't put an organ on your mouth, so therfore it isn't a reed instrument. Examples of a reed instrument are; saxophones, clarinet and bass clarinet.

An oboe is a woodwind instrument (the reed is made of wood)
Woodwind . originally made from bone, then wood, and now medal, usually silver The flute belongs to the woodwind (or better known wind) instrument family. It is a reedless instrument where sound is created by blowing air across an opening in the instrument.
Clarinets and Saxophones both make up single reed instrument families. There are others, but these are the two most well known. The clarinet has a nearly cylindrical bore and is made of wood or a wood substitute. The Saxophone has a conical bore and is made of brass.

A shawm is typically made of wood, such as boxwood, and is often ornamented with metal keys to control the pitch of the instrument. The double reed, which is a crucial component of the sound production, is made of cane.

Most oboes are made of wood, typically african blackwood or grenadilla wood. Other woods include rosewood and violet wood. Student models are sometimes made out of a plastic resin. Most oboes have silver plated keys and cork or skin pads. The reed is made of cane tied with nylon thread onto a typically brass staple, with a cork to ease insertion into the instrument.

Along with every clarinet, the bass clarinet is a single reed instrument.
The main body can be either wood (the more expensive kind) or plastic (the slightly cheaper kind). The keys are either silver metal or sometime silver plated ( more common) and the reed is a double reed made of cane.
The bassoon is a double-reed woodwind instrument that uses a system of keys and fingerings to produce different pitches. When air is blown through the reed, the vibrations create sound waves that resonate in the instrument's long, coiled body. By pressing down on various keys and holes, the player can change the length of the vibrating air column, producing different notes.
