Sticky's Garrison

Keith Wilson Road is one of the few east to west routes across the south of Chilliwack, crossing Vedder Road and running out toward the river flats, and Sticky's Garrison sits on it at the 45575 block. That places the shop inside Vedder, the fastest growing neighborhood in the city and now second only to the downtown for population, and within easy reach of the Canada Education Park campuses at the south end. It is a different catchment from a downtown bakery counter. Students, staff at the university and the training centers, and the households that filled in around Garrison Crossing after the base closed in 1997 all draw on the same short run of road.

This record carries no phone number and no website, which is common for a small bakery working mostly on walk-in trade. It also means there is no published way to check what is being baked on a particular day. The postal code above, V2R 0M6, will put a map on the right stretch of Keith Wilson Road. Anyone making a special trip for one specific thing would do better to go early and take what is on the shelf than to count on a particular loaf being there.
