Have you tried contacting  4-H or FFA chapters or a local magnet ag high school?

In the news today...

"Warning: Aroids may be habit-forming.

" While Poseidon's Ribbon Weed is a clonal species, the plant is not interconnected as Aspen groves are. Aspen groves are not made of multiple plants, but rather gargantuan root networks intertwining beneath tens of thousands of genetically identical trees over hundreds of acres."

Vocational Schools nearby?  I'm assuming this is extruded "twinwall" polycarb panels. I'd use a high-grade RTV polycarb adhesive to "scab" extensions onto the short panels.

Try asking vendors at your local farmer's market if they know of someone that would do this kind of work.
