WI Psilocybin law · Reviewed Nov 12, 2026

Are shrooms legal in Wisconsin?

Illegal

Psilocybin and psilocin remain illegal in Wisconsin, with no statewide medical or decriminalization program.

All states

Possession penalty

A first conviction for simple possession carries a fine of up to $5,000, up to one year in county jail, or both; a second or subsequent offense is a Class I felony.

Medical & therapy access

Wisconsin has no psilocybin therapy program. Research requires a Controlled Substances Board permit and must comply with federal registration requirements. A federal executive order in April 2026 directed further review and work on potential access and research, but did not reschedule psilocybin or create an enforceable right; no psilocybin product had FDA approval as of October 2026.

Local decriminalization

No city or county measures found in our sources.

Spores

No Wisconsin statute cited specifically names spores, mycelium, or grow kits; the sources caution that statutory silence is not permission.

Amanita muscaria

One source describes Amanita muscaria as a non-psilocybin mushroom product sold legally; no further Wisconsin legal detail is provided.

Other psychedelics

Wisconsin's possession statute also covers LSD and MDMA: a first conviction carries up to a $5,000 fine, one year in county jail, or both; a second or subsequent offense is a Class I felony.

FDA trigger law

Wisconsin has a law that would let doctors prescribe an FDA-approved psilocybin medicine once federal approval and rescheduling happen. It does not legalize mushrooms.
