About Hungry Hollow SNAP
Hungry Hollow SNAP is a comprehensive plan for climate action and sustainable urban renewal at the neighbourhood scale. The Delrex neighbourhood in Georgetown is a mature, urban area beloved for its small-town setting. It connects with Hungry Hollow – a largely undeveloped, publicly-owned ravine valued for its natural beauty and outdoor recreational opportunities. Silver Creek and Black Creek flow through the deep valley connecting the neighbourhood to the Credit River. Hungry Hollow contains important forests, wetlands and cold-water streams that support abundant, diverse wildlife. Hungry Hollow SNAP is CVC’s second SNAP in the Credit River Watershed.

Credit Valley Conservation (CVC) is a local conservation authority established by the Ontario government in 1954 to protect, restore and enhance the natural environment of the Credit River watershed. That watershed is the area of land where all rainfall, snowmelt and runoff drains (“sheds”) into lands and waters flowing into the Credit River. CVC creates connections between people and nature, knowledge and action. It inspires a deep appreciation for the role of nature in keeping people connected, healthy and happy. CVC is a member of Conservation Ontario.
