Colorado… psychedelics…

Five psychedelic substances… in Colorado, including psilocybin. That means personal possession, cultivation, use and sharing are not illegal or grounds for arrest… according to the statute, anyone over 21 who grows, manufactures, uses, possesses or shares a “personal” amount… is not breaking state or local laws.

The greeter at a 21-plus party in Denver offers guests free psilocybin-infused gummies as they walk in the door. A panelist shares psychedelic fungi from his home grow after speaking at the Telluride Mushroom Festival. More than 100 people convene at a Mile High City coffee shop to exchange “magic mushrooms” without exchanging money. And everything these individuals are doing is technically legal.
