Oregon Threatens to Revoke Approval of a Mushroom School That Says It’s a Religious Practice

If Oregon Health Authority follows through, it would mark the first time the agency has revoked approval of a psilocybin business.

A cottage industry has sprouted in Oregon’s legal market for psilocybin mushrooms: private career schools pumping out hundreds of “facilitators,” who then guide paying customers through intense encounters with psychedelics.

The Oregon Health Authority has approved a whopping 25 of these programs, which charge thousands of dollars in tuition and give graduates a shot at a state license to guide trips.

Until recently, Shasta Winn has been running one of the schools while traveling the country in a van.
