Sassafras

📍 7770 Croaker Rd, Williamsburg, VA 23188, USA
Sassafras Public
🗓 Season: August · September
🔍 When is it ripe?
Dark blue-black berries on red stalks. Edible but rarely used. The bark and roots (root beer flavour) contain safrole — regulated. Young leaves can be dried and ground as filé powder for gumbo.
Can't recall if the sassafras is behind the Norge Depot or if it's behind the library, but the leaves are unmistakable.
