Sibling Startup Turns Mushroom Delivery Into Local Psychedelic Shop

A fresh shop on Main Street in Ann Arbor is more than a place to buy mushroom stems—it’s a conversation starter about wellness and science.
Psilly, opened on May 8, is run by two siblings: a former special‑education teacher and a former TV producer. Their journey began during the pandemic, delivering psychedelic mushrooms to people who needed them from home.

From Delivery to Brick‑and‑Mortar

Local laws shifted in 2020, easing restrictions on recreational mushrooms. This opened the door for the siblings to transition from delivery to a physical storefront. Today, Psilly sells stems, gummies, and capsules for both recreational users and those seeking relief from mental health challenges.

A Balanced Partnership

The brothers complement each other perfectly:

• Science & Policy – One focuses on the research and regulatory side.
• Creative Media – The other explains products to curious customers through a media lens.

Their unique partnership keeps the shop friendly and approachable, fostering trust with shoppers.

Positive Feedback & Community Education

Customers report noticeable benefits even without seeking a “trip.” This feedback reinforces the siblings’ mission to make psilocybin accessible and legitimate. They continue to educate the community about safe usage while staying ready to adapt as laws evolve.

Looking Ahead

The shop’s future is open-ended, but the siblings are confident in their direction. They aim to remain a welcoming presence in Ann Arbor as the local scene evolves.
