Origin & Vision
From a simple dream to a thriving green sanctuary, discover how Nagar Van has grown into Satna's most beloved natural retreat
The Origin Story
Where It All Began
Born from a Vision to Preserve Nature in Urban Satna
In 2010, a group of passionate environmentalists and community leaders recognized the urgent need for a green sanctuary in the rapidly urbanizing landscape of Satna. What started as a modest initiative to plant trees and create walking paths has blossomed into a comprehensive ecological park.
Through collaboration with the Satna Forest Division and support from local communities, Nagar Van has transformed barren land into a thriving ecosystem. Today, it stands as a testament to what dedicated conservation efforts can achieve.
