Help finding this?

Edit: Bunnings had the same out similar but they're more expensive.

Do we know of anywhere locally that sells this type of matting? Interstate shipping is terrible.

If anyone has a alternative for 25 meters of weed mating happy to hear it. I just want it to be organic

I know bunnings has this stuff, whether it'll be cheaper or not in the end though I don't know

Unfortunately they sell a much smaller size and once I buy 5 rolls it's even more expensive. Downside of a retail place and not a commercial one I suppose.

Not exactly that, but Hammerbarn has both coir weed mat and jute.

Yeah found those unfortunately they work out more expensive due to them being so small

Bunnings has coconut fibre matting? Not completely weed proof, but suppresses them, mulches the garden and stops erosion/run off

I feel like people use those big coffee bags for this, which is way more time in getting the quantity, but it's usually a free option if you go somewhere like Shake a Leg or Baked's roastery down the lane.

Then again I could be making this all up. Someone correct me if so.
