Very cool creation! I especially like all the variation in the different
plants--the corn, the grapevines, the fruit trees. I’m cross-posting this to
.castle and .town as there are many who don’t read Portugese who would be
interested.

This is a characteristic house of the northern portugal at the end of the XIX
century. In those times the industry and commerce were almost none existence in
this area, so the subsistence agriculture was the only way to produce some food
and sell or trade the rest in the local market.
Off course they produced more types of food that the ones represented on the
MOC.
The small construction at the left of the pic, is a “Espigueiro”.
Espigueiro is a construction used in this region to dry cereals, corn normally.
The chickens are based on Jojo’s work.
