New Freedom Heritage is a 503c not-for-profit organization dedicated to preserving the rich history and culture of New Freedom, Pennsylvania. It was founded on June 15, 2004 by several members of the New Freedom Community Gardeners whose hope was to promote a better future for the community. That is still an important part of the mission today.

– Annual New Freedom Fest
– Creation of the Freedom Green Community Park
– Creation of the Heritage Museum of New Freedom and an interactive kiosk
