Young B.C. Bakers Raising Dough for Canucks Autism Network - Parksville Qualicum News

The 9-year-old brothers sell baked goods, pottery and plants at a weekend stall, with proceeds supporting a charity that helped their family.

  • In Saanich, nine-year-old twins Charlie and Loki Swenson have raised about $700 for the Canucks Autism Network through their weekend stall, Bread Boys, located at 4062 Grange.
  • The Swenson family began supporting the Canucks Autism Network five years ago after Loki was diagnosed with autism, receiving help navigating his autism journey.
  • Visitors can purchase sourdough bread, cookies, cream puffs, and brownies alongside handmade pottery and plants grown by the boys at the stall.
  • Mother Chelsea Swenson said the boys love volunteering, while father Shea Swenson praised the network for being "very supportive" and helping ensure the children have fun giving back.
  • The family plans to continue the stall until mid-summer, taking it weekend by weekend while remaining open to future campaigns supporting the Canucks Autism Network.
