Heard’s Brigade is a non-profit organization dedicated to educating the public about the role of the Organized and Irregular companies of New Jersey Militia during the American Revolutionary War. We participate in battle re-enactments and living history displays to portray 18th century military and civilian life. We strive to always continue our research efforts to provide the most accurate impressions we can.
We are always looking for new recruits. For more information about joining, see our Contact Page.
As an outreach to the community we have provided programs for schools and scouting organizations. If you would like us to bring our program to you, see our Contact Page.
We have also in the past offered scholarships to deserving New Jersey High School Students.
