Two clever ideas make the inhabitants of Fontainhas "smart farmers".
Once the much-branched irrigation system. Small levadas bring water from sources in the back valley area to the cisterns, from which banana plantations and sugar cane fields are irrigated.
The other idea is the narrow, stacked terraced narrow fields. The "poios" - as they are called - were not carved into the rock, but "glued to the slope like bird nests". In other words, first of all retaining walls are erected, then the terraces are filled with fertile, muddy ground

Fontainhas is a beautifully colored settlement in the northern part of the island of Santo Antão. It is located near the rocky north coast of the island, 2 km southwest of Ponta do Sol and 19 km north of the island's capital Porto Novo. The settlement includes the smaller villages of Corvo and Forminguinhas, about 1 km west of Fontainhas. The view is magnificent even from afar.
