As a practical matter, no. While it is possible that you could obtain a judgment against the defunct business, you will be in a position of trying to get blood from a stone. And "piercing the corporate veil" to seek recovery from the owners requires showing a different set of facts, which you have not begun to suggest. For the value of a couple of plants, it's probably not worth it.
