Hi Johnny, welcome! I'm in the lower Hudson Valley area and we do not really have a supply store here. You say you are looking maybe for some wood chips etc. One suggestion I can make in regards to wood is maybe check with some custom cabinet/woodworking shops in Brooklyn. I actually work full time for a custom cabinet shop and I get the majority of my wood for smoking from our scraps. Typically I take pieces of solid cherry, maple, white oak & alder. The nice things are the pieces are bark free, bug free and dry. I also control the wood size by how I cut the scraps. I know you said wood "chips", and these would be more like chunks, but I just wanted to mention this possibly free option. There are a lot of wood shops in your area - I'm sure they have some scraps you could take. One thing to note however: be careful of exotic woods, they can make you sick when burned if you inhale the smoke.
