Old MacDonald's Farm

**Old MacDonald's Farm** is a minor location in *Turtle Man and DaPhantom* that is found not far off of The City of Nexus, and on the opposite side of HF Studios. It is a large farm owned by Old MacDonald where he lives and tends the many different crops and animals that he keeps across it, as well as storing his different equipment and items. Turtle Man, DaPhantom and Officer M. have visited his farm on a few occasions, but not that often due to how strange the aforementioned farmer is.

## Description

Old MacDonald's Farm features a large cornfield that grows constantly, which Old MacDonald himself harvests using his large red tractor which he leaves on the farm in various spots and some of his other tools. There is a path of stone tiles which lead to some of the different buildings across the farm, including a long red farmhouse and a large red barn where hay and collected crops are kept, as are some animals like cows and sheep. The farm also has some lamps across it to provide light, patches of grass with the occasional tree and some scarecrows to scare birds away from the. In addition there is a huge metal silo near the barn, a large wooden windmill and a small wooden shack near the windmill with some unspecified things within it; Old MacDonald never wants to open it or talk about the contents.

## Background

Old MacDonald built his own large scale farm long ago completely on his own so he would be able to farm animals and crops more effectively, as his previous methods of farming weren’t as effective. He intentionally built his farm far away from the City of Nexus and most other civilised places as he did not want any visitors, for he was not social at all and so would not welcome anyone on his farm other than him. This worked out well as very few people ever even knew about the farm’s existence and so would not visit it, leaving the old farmer on his own to work more on his farm and create things like a large barn and even homemade tractor to farm with. His farm was first visited by Turtle Man, DaPhantom and Officer M. not long after moving to Nexus for the first time, after they had met Quacksia in the Ectoplasm Forest and wanted to ask Old MacDonald if he was a part of his duck ranch but he denied it. Turtle Man and DaPhantom visited the farm again after Officer M. went missing to ask him if he knew anything about where he went, but he didn’t know or help.

In the first movie, the trio and Mort visited Old MacDonald’s Farm to ask him if he was responsible for burning down the nearby HF Studios due to the noise from it which might have annoyed the cranky old farmer, but he denied doing this. They believed him because he probably wouldn’t have the energy or motivation to do such a thing, and so moved on. The trio did visit his farm again whilst they were looking for inspiration for a song they were writing for a competition, and Old MacDonald showed them around inside his house and the barn which they gathered some lyric ideas from before they left.

## Trivia

* Despite the farm making very few appearances in the actual show, it is present the video game adaptations of as levels which can be visited and interacted with.
* There have been claims by some people that Old MacDonald has children working on his farm for no pay and that he hides them somewhere, but he denies any of this. Though the validity of his statement is up for debate, due to how suspicious Old MacDonald is all the time.
