Porky's Spring Planting is a 1938 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes cartoon directed by Frank Tashlin. The short was released on July 25, 1938, and stars Porky Pig.

Plot

Porky Pig begins ploughing his land and planting seeds, with some help from his dog Streamline. They plant many kinds of vegetables. But when the crops are ripe, a rooster sells tickets to other chickens who make a self-servicing cafe out of the field. Porky notices and tries to chase them off, but they persist. He tries everything to get the chicken to leave from a scarecrow to sending his dog Streamline but to no avail. To protect the last of his crops, Porky makes a deal with the chickens to plant a separate vegetable garden for them.
