Maxine's Hideaway was founded in 2024 by two longtime pig advocates. We are located in Alachua, Florida (about 15 miles north of Gainesville) on a 10-acre property. Our mission is to provide a permanent loving home to abandoned/neglected/surrendered farm animals.

Our organization is named for Maxine, a pig we adopted in 2015 who passed away in 2018. Maxine was one of those rare animals who truly changed our lives. We honor her memory in the work that we do.
