Antoinette Chabot arrived in Méjanes, aged 15, got married, and had her two children there. She first started to work the land, then did the fruits picking and packing, moved on to working in the restaurant, and finished by being in charge of the mas.
She is very devoted to the Ricard family.
Since the birth of Michèle Ricard’s children, she was just like a nanny to them. Michèle will never forget with how much affection she took care of them. Nor will she forget the devotion she had for her mother with whom she will spend her last years.
There are so many stories to tell about her! Once, she told us that on a winter evening, as she was leaving the farmhouse to go back to her house next door, she tripped on a dark mass that she hadn’t seen because there was no lighting on and no moonlight that night. It happens that it was a bull that had escaped! He got as surprised as her, and they both didn’t wait a second to run away.
