On May 28, 2025, the Alcoholic Beverage and Cannabis Administration (ABCA) closed and padlocked Wellshroomness located at 922 Kennedy Street NW, Washington DC. 

The Alcoholic Beverage and Cannabis (ABC) Board issued the Closure Order due to the business operating illegally and posing an imminent risk to public health and safety. 

While executing a search warrant during the Closure Order servicing, the District's Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officers seized 5.8 pounds of mushrooms and 411 grams of mushroom edibles.

To date, joint agency enforcement efforts have led to the padlocking of 56 illegal businesses across DC since the Medical Cannabis Conditional License and Unlicensed Establishment Closure Clarification Emergency Amendment Act of 2024 took effect on July 15, 2024.
