Shield Or a weeping willow Vert eradicated between a grape bunch Purpure leafed Vert at dexter and an olive branch Vert fruited Sable at sinister. Mural crown Argent with three visible towers (village rank) and white scroll with black inscription "SALGUEIRO DO CAMPO".
Meaning:
The weeping willow (Portuguese: salgueiro) is a canting element. The grape bunch is representing viticulture and the olive branch the production of olive oil, both being important local business lines.

I would like to clarify that English "willow" means roughly the same as Portuguese "salgueiro",
i.e. any tree of the genus Salix_, while "weeping willow", Salix babylonica, is rather "salgueiro-chorão".
