Illegal — no state or local reform Not statewide. Psilocybin is Schedule I under Michigan Compiled Laws §333.7212. However, five cities — Ann Arbor, Detroit, Hazel Park, Ferndale, and Ypsilanti — have passed resolutions directing police to deprioritize entheogen enforcement. These are not legal protections.

City-level deprioritization

The following cities in Michigan have passed resolutions directing local police to treat entheogenic plant and fungi enforcement as the lowest priority: Ann Arbor, Detroit, Hazel Park, Ferndale, Ypsilanti.

Important: city deprioritization resolutions are not decriminalization and do not make psilocybin legal. They affect only local police enforcement priorities. State law and federal law still apply, and state/federal prosecutors are not bound by city council resolutions.

Frequently asked questions about Michigan psilocybin law

Are psilocybin mushrooms legal in Michigan?

Not statewide. Psilocybin is Schedule I under Michigan Compiled Laws §333.7212. No statewide decriminalization or therapeutic access program has passed. SB 631 (the Michigan Psychedelics and Mental Health Act) is pending. However, five Michigan cities have passed resolutions deprioritizing entheogen enforcement: Ann Arbor (September 2020), Detroit (November 2021), Hazel Park (2021), Ferndale (2021), and Ypsilanti (2021).

Are mushrooms legal in Detroit?

Not legally. Detroit's city council passed a resolution in November 2021 directing Detroit Police to deprioritize enforcement of laws against entheogenic plants and fungi. However, Michigan state law and federal law still classify psilocybin as Schedule I, and the city resolution does not provide legal protection.

Are mushrooms legal in Ann Arbor?

Not legally. Ann Arbor was the first Midwest city to deprioritize psilocybin enforcement (September 2020). But Michigan state law still classifies psilocybin as Schedule I. The Ann Arbor resolution means local police are instructed to treat enforcement as the lowest priority — it does not make possession or distribution legal.

Is there a Michigan psilocybin bill in 2026?

Yes. SB 631, the Michigan Psychedelics and Mental Health Act, would create a licensed psilocybin service center program modeled on Oregon's Measure 109. It was introduced in 2023 and has been pending in the Michigan Legislature. As of May 2026, no vote has been taken. Michigan residents seeking legal psilocybin access can travel to Oregon or Colorado, where programs are fully operational.

Are Amanita muscaria mushrooms legal in Michigan?

Yes. Amanita muscaria (the red-and-white spotted mushroom) is not a controlled substance under Michigan law or federal law. It contains muscimol, not psilocybin, and is a legally distinct product. Amanita muscaria gummies and extracts are sold legally in Michigan. However, Amanita muscaria is not psilocybin and does not produce the same clinical or psychedelic effects as psilocybin mushrooms.
