I'm guessing it's okay to use slate from our garden...
...if I rinse it off and then place it in boiling water for a moment or two, right?

Slate is allright as far as I know - if you need to make sure, dip it in a bucket of water overnight and test the parameters of the water for any changes (especially hardness)

Boiling it should kill off any pathogens
