Home growing is legal across Saginaw County. Under Michigan law, an adult 21 or older may cultivate up to 12 cannabis plants per household for personal use, kept in a secured area out of public view.
Michigan legalized adult-use cannabis through the Michigan Regulation and Taxation of Marihuana Act (MRTMA), MCL 333.27951 et seq. An adult 21 or older may possess up to 2.5 ounces of marihuana in public and cultivate up to 12 plants at their residence for personal use, storing the harvest at home. The 12-plant cap applies to the whole household, not per person. Plants must be kept in an enclosed, locked area not visible from a public place, such as a locked room, greenhouse, or fenced yard. This applies the same in the City of Saginaw, Saginaw Township, and Frankenmuth; local governments cannot ban personal home growing. Growing for sale requires a state license.
Growing more than 12 plants, keeping plants visible from public spaces, or cultivating for unlicensed sale can bring civil fines, seizure of the plants, and criminal charges for larger unlicensed grows.
