| rdfs:comment | - An elderly man who has a farm near Alton Brown's home, he prides himself on his home-grown produce and enters them regularly in county fair food contests. Brown used to pilfer from McGregor's prized tomato patch, but soon stopped when McGregor realized the tomato dishes Brown gave him were made with his own tomatoes. McGregor also has the skills to produce larger-than-average produce, making a potato that weighed 29 lb (13 kg), although it lost in the "Big Food" contest to Brown's modest olive. McGregor also appears in the eggplant episode and brings Brown too many eggplants to use, often using wheelbarrows and cardboard boxes as delivery methods.
- Farmer McGregor appears in a Sesame Street sketch with Colambo in "The Case of the Missing Pig". When Colambo interrogates Tom Piper's Son for info about a missing pig, he calls for Farmer McGregor to identify the missing pig. At first the pig wears a moustache, but when Colambo takes it off, Farmer McGregor reveals that it is his lost pig, Samantha. It was later revealed that Tom Piper's Son took the farmer's cow and chicken. Farmer McGregor can also be seen as a frustrated would-be passenger (without the mustache) of the "The Elephant Elevator Operator".
