Sassafras trees are native to the area. They are found throughout Long island, there is one in my backyard, and are numerous throughout the Sunken Forest on Fire island. Native Americans made tea from sassafras and then sasparilla soda in modern times.

I would check though with an expert before consuming leaves or roots from any tree first.
