Serfs did not own land, and this was part of what made them serfs. Serfs were not slaves, but they were not free either.

They could choose what to farm, but not where to farm.

In exchange for giving the lord of the manor a part of their crop, they got the land, their homes, and protection. It was a system of mutual support and mutual obligation.
