They were like landlords (sort of). The peasants harvested food and cultivated the land, then they gave it to their lord (aka Barons) as tax. The Barons also provided protection against barbarian invasion with his knights. In the feudal pyramid, king and queen first, then barons along with the church, the knights then finally the peasants.
