If you have time this weekend why don't you take a walk in the woods near your house, bring along a ball of string or yarn, and tie a piece around 20 or so very little sassafras trees before they all lose their leaves. Then, over the winter, you can pull one up by the root every weekend or so, "skin" the root (I use my thumbnail) and chop it up small, and then simmer it in 2 or 3 cups of water for about 15-20 minutes.
It makes a tasty hot winter time tea, and it's known for its anti-microbial virtues. And I like the way it smells while it simmers.
* Tastes like mild root beer
* Good for the whole family
* Free!
