Founded in 2019 by Vicky Taylor, the Franklin County Free Press serves as a beacon of local journalism for Franklin County residents. Under Vicky's leadership, it quickly became an important news source, especially at a time when major newspaper publications were increasingly ignoring local coverage.
On January 1, 2022, the torch was passed to Nathan Neil and his company Neil Publishing, LLC. Neil is a local entrepreneur with several thriving businesses in Chambersburg who shares Vicky's passionate commitment to the community and local journalism.
The Franklin County Free Press is rooted in the heart of Franklin County and powered by residents, constantly bridging the gap to ensure the local stories, events and issues that matter most to the community are always heard.
