It is bordered to the north by the municipalities of Venecia, Amagá and Caldas, to the east by Santa Bárbara, to the west by Tarso and Jericó and to the south by Támesis, Valparaíso and La Pintada. The name "Fredonia" comes from a suggestion made by the English engineer Tyrrel Moore, who suggested the English word "freedom" to designate the town. Fredonia has been and is of evident agricultural and livestock tradition. It is characterized by the high and very fine production of coffee, but it is also thinking for its development plans in the exploitation of forest reserves (2007). Since the time of the founders, Fredonia has been sending cassava, arracacha, plantains and murrapo to different markets, the latter of which is also exported to Europe and other regions.
