The Ohio Valley Group was established in January 1989 out of the home of husband and wife team Andy and Kathleen Dangelo. Andy’s degree in horticulture and Kathleen’s law degree formed the educational base from which their Cleveland, Ohio small business was formed. They began with $10,000, which was used to purchase a truck and some equipment. In one year, the company grew enough to include a fleet of trucks, several employees, and a recognizable name. The Ohio Valley Group was on its way!

Our Story
In May 2005, they purchased 15 wooded acres of land in Bainbridge Township, Ohio, to build an office and storage space. This fueled even more growth for the company. In addition to their love for horticulture and nature, the Dangelos interest in wine and cuisine had grown over the years—especially with the inspiration from a trip to Napa Valley. When they returned home to northern Ohio, they realized they were literally sitting on the key to their new dream. The Dangelos embarked on creating a winery and event center to bring the Napa experience to Ohio.

Winery & Gardens
Sapphire Creek
From 1989 to 2015 The Ohio Valley Group continued to make their client’s landscaping dreams come true and sustained growth as a company. The hub of the business was operating on a 15-acre plot of gorgeous land in Bainbridge Township, Ohio. Little did they know, when they purchased that property in 2005, what they would ultimately create. Inspired by Napa Valley’s seamless and open transition from indoor to outdoor spaces, Kathleen and Andy wanted to showcase their landscaping artistry while incorporating another passion of theirs—wine, food, and the gathering of kindred spirits. So, they brought Napa to Northern Ohio and opened Sapphire Creek Winery & Gardens in March 2018. The establishment is a full-service restaurant, bar, and event venue that can accommodate groups as small as 10 and as many as 300. Visit us for an exquisite dinner, your small group event, or a large celebration. Come, see, and experience Sapphire Creek Winery & Gardens!

Ohio Valley Group, specifically Jay and his crew, did an outstanding job on our back patio and pavilion. Jay took my small idea and turned into more than I could have imagined. We went from a tiny cement slab to an outdoor space that feels like another room in our house.
