Antoinette, an author, lives on a 'micro-farm' at Mangakino where she is working on becoming as self-sufficient as possible, growing her own food and rearing livestock.
As part of that Antoinette is interested in people managing their own health and growing and managing their own food.
She says people need to have autonomy over themselves and their families as well as strong family values and chose to home school partly because she dislikes the education curriculum's emphasis on students becoming global citizens.
Her books include novels, non-fiction books on homeschooling and historical fiction, as well as a geopolitical book espousing the anti-UN conspiracy theories embraced by Advance NZ.
Her interests include needlecraft, knitting and crochet.
