Loading http content on https domain

We have created a website which is served right now on Heroku. This website has a search bar in the navbar and I wanted to use Freefind search service for the backend. The search result I receive from it are all over the HTTP server and Heroku server will not load it.

I want them to work fine just as they work on localhost. What can I do?

The app is Django based and I tried to google custom search but it didn't work for me.

You can't load most HTTP content on HTTPS domains. Loading HTTP images is fine, but is still discouraged. This is called mixed content blocking, which is a browser's feature.

The only thing you can do is to find out if freefind's search service supports HTTPS. You can try changing the URL to https://search.freefind.com/... and see if it works. Or contact freefind and ask them if they support HTTPS. If they don't support HTTPS, you have to find a different company's search service.
