Gather ’round, duck enthusiasts and farm-to-table fans alike! Today, we dive into the whimsical world of Old McWaddles, the spirited rubber duck farmer who traded feathers for farming tools. Yes, you heard that right—Old McWaddles is here to quack up your day and grow a garden full of giggles and greens!

Old McWaddles

Old McWaddles Had a Farm – Quack-tastically Growing Produce!

Inspired by the timeless tune of “Old McDonald,” McWaddles has his own anthem:

Old McWaddles had a farm,
E-I-E-I-QUACK!
And on that farm, he grew some greens,
E-I-E-I-QUACK!
With a sprout-sprout here,
And a quack-quack there,
Here a sprout, there a quack,
Everywhere a sprout-quack!
Old McWaddles had a farm,
E-I-E-I-QUACK!”

While belting out his song, McWaddles waddles along the rows of radishes, meticulously managing his mini rubber duck-sized tractor. It’s a sight that would make any duck-lover swoon.

From Paddling Pools to Planting Produce

Before his farming fame, Old McWaddles floated aimlessly in a kiddie pool. Then one day, a gust of wind blew a gardening magazine his way, landing open to a page about urban farms. Inspired and a little hungry, McWaddles decided he’d take his waddle to the soil and make a life of growing—carrots, cabbages, and cucumbers, oh my!

Farm Favorites and Fun Facts

Old McWaddles has a beak-tacular knack for growing a variety of crops. Here are his top picks:

• Duck-cumber Delight: Perfectly crisp cucumbers that pair well with a splash in the pond and perfectly for pickle making.
• Quacky Kale: His favorite for making nutritious smoothies—it keeps his feathers glistening.
• Paddle-Root Potatoes: Ideal for hearty duck dinners (or as he calls them, “waddle fuel”).

Fun Fact: McWaddles uses recycled rubber mulch to keep his crops weed-free. It’s environmentally friendly and oh-so-fitting for a rubber duck farmer!

A Farming Duck’s Legacy

Old McWaddles has become somewhat of a legend. He’s the first-ever rubber duck to have his own line of organic produce: “”McWaddles’ Quacktastic Crops.” He’s even been featured on the cover of Feathered Farmer Monthly. Not too shabby for a former bathtub resident, huh?

Get Your McWaddles Groove On

You don’t have to be a rubber duck to channel Old McWaddles’ passion. Start small—plant a herb garden or some patio tomatoes. And don’t forget to sing while you garden! Who knows, you might inspire your own waddle-worthy story.

So, the next time you see a rubber duck, don’t just think of bubble baths—think of bubble soil! Old McWaddles proves that anyone, even a humble rubber duck, can grow a greener world.

I got this rubber duck from Target myself. Then I got a second one from Ankyo Development (ones who manufactured him exclusively for Target). The duplicate I’ll duck a Jeep with.
