Are Magic Mushrooms Legal in Michigan? (2026 Guide)

Not statewide. Psilocybin is illegal under Michigan law in 2026, but Ann Arbor, Detroit, Hazel Park, Ferndale, and Ypsilanti deprioritize enforcement.

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.

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).

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.

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.

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.

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.

Possession of psilocybin in Michigan is a felony. Under Michigan Compiled Laws §333.7403, possession of a Schedule I controlled substance carries up to four years in prison and a fine of up to $25,000. Delivery or manufacture of psilocybin carries up to seven years for smaller amounts, escalating to life imprisonment for larger quantities under MCL §333.7401. The five-city deprioritization resolutions (Ann Arbor, Detroit, Hazel Park, Ferndale, Ypsilanti) do not affect state or federal charging decisions.

Psilocybin mushroom spores do not themselves contain psilocybin, so the spores are not a Schedule I substance under Michigan or federal law. However, germinating spores into mycelium or fruiting bodies constitutes manufacturing a Schedule I controlled substance — a felony under MCL §333.7401. Possessing spores with demonstrable intent to cultivate is prosecutable even if the spores themselves are not listed as controlled. The 'microscopy use only' label common on research-chemical vendors does not provide legal protection for cultivation.

No. Neither Grand Rapids nor Lansing has passed a psilocybin deprioritization or decriminalization resolution. The Michigan cities that have passed such resolutions are Ann Arbor (September 2020), Detroit (November 2021), Hazel Park (2021), Ferndale (2021), and Ypsilanti (2021). Psilocybin possession in Grand Rapids or Lansing is subject to full enforcement under Michigan state law.
