Psilocybin sits in a genuinely confusing legal space in Michigan: decriminalised in three cities, prohibited under state and federal law, with active legislative bills that may or may not advance. Here is the Mush Love MI plain-English summary, updated for 2025.

Federal law

Psilocybin remains a Schedule I controlled substance under the federal Controlled Substances Act. Federal enforcement of personal-use psilocybin possession is rare — there has not been a federal case prosecuted for under 28 grams in over a decade — but the law has not changed.

Michigan state law

Michigan classifies psilocybin and psilocin as Schedule I substances under MCL 333.7212. State-level prosecution for personal possession is uncommon but legally possible.

City-level decriminalisation

Ann Arbor — September 2020 (first in Michigan)
Hazel Park — March 2022
Detroit — November 2021 ballot measure (Proposal E, passed 61%)
Ferndale and Ypsilanti — both passed similar resolutions in 2022

Decriminalisation makes possession the lowest enforcement priority. It does not legalise retail sale.

What that means for buyers

Ordering personal-use psilocybin to a decriminalised Michigan address is a low-risk activity in practice — but it is not a legal activity in writing. Mush Love MI ships discreetly, uses neutral packaging, and accepts payments outside the credit-card network for exactly this reason.

Pending legislation

SB 631 (the Michigan Psilocybin Mushroom Therapy Act) has been introduced multiple times and stalled multiple times. Active legislative tracking lives on the Decriminalize Nature Michigan website — not on this blog, which can go out of date.
