Shield Or, issuant from base a mount Azure, above a palm branch Vert between two corn cobs Gules leafed Vert. Mural crown Argent with three visible towers (village rank) and white scroll reading in black upper case serifed letters "PICO - VILA VERDE".
Meaning:
According to blazon the shield is mantled. A mantle usually is at both top edges. I guess the blue base is a canting element.
