On May 14, 2026 a fire destroyed 25,000 square feet of our warehouse, offices, and venue. Trucks, equipment, inventory โ gone. What didn't burn was our team, our commitment, and everything we've built with this community over 15 years. We are not going anywhere.
In a matter of hours we lost the physical foundation of everything we had built since 2010. Our headquarters at 5801 Haunz Lane โ the offices where our team worked every day, the warehouse that housed our fleet and equipment, and The Greenhouse venue that served the Louisville community โ all of it was gone.
The loss was significant. But the morning after the fire, our crews showed up. Every single one of them.
"We lost everything inside those walls. But we didn't lose our people, our clients, or our reputation. The morning after the fire, every single crew member showed up. That told me everything I needed to know about who we are and what we're made of."
โ Antonio Zeppa ยท Owner & President ยท Zeppa's Landscape and Design Co.
A fire can destroy a building. It can't destroy 15 years of relationships, reputation, and the people who show up every single day.
Every crew member showed up the morning after the fire. No hesitation. No questions. That's the culture we've built over 15 years โ and it showed up when it mattered most.
Not a single client property missed a scheduled visit. Our crews were on the road the next morning. Your property has been and will continue to be handled โ no interruptions, no excuses.
250+ five-star Google reviews. 15 years of premium service. The trust this community has placed in Zeppa's โ that doesn't burn. If anything, the response to this fire has strengthened it.
The outpouring of support from Louisville has been humbling. Clients, neighbors, vendors, and friends reached out immediately. This community showed up for us the way we've always tried to show up for it.
Family first. Reputation first. Do the right thing. These aren't words on a wall โ they're how we operated the morning after losing everything. Our values didn't burn because they were never in the building.
We are actively rebuilding โ better, smarter, and stronger than before. This setback is part of our story. And like everything Zeppa's has ever faced, we're going to come out the other side better for it.
We're documenting every step of the rebuild so our community can follow along. Here's exactly where things stand.
