Here's how to get Purple Mushroom in Stardew Valley.
Finding a Purple Mushroom takes a bit of luck, but there are a handful of spots and methods worth knowing that make the search a lot less painful. Most sources rely on random chance, so patience matters more than any single guaranteed spot. Knowing where to look regularly makes a big difference over just wandering the map hoping for a lucky find.
The Mushroom Cave
If you've set your farm cave to the Mushroom Cave option, there's a small 2.5% chance it generates a Purple Mushroom. It's not a reliable method on its own, but worth checking regularly since it costs nothing extra to look.

Other Passive Sources
Purple Mushrooms occasionally show up at the Traveling Cart vendor in Cindersap Forest, though stock there is random and not guaranteed. Tapping or chopping down a Mushroom Tree, if one can be found, is another passive way to pick one up.
The Mines and Skull Cavern
For a more consistent source, the Mines are the better bet, specifically between floors 81 and 119. Purple Mushrooms can also be found in the Skull Cavern, where going deeper tends to improve the odds, though drops there remain fairly random overall.

Which Method to Prioritize
Stick to the Mines between floors 81 and 119 or the Skull Cavern if you want consistent results - everything else (the Mushroom Cave, Traveling Cart, Mushroom Trees) is more of a lucky bonus than something to count on.
Purple Mushrooms come down mostly to exploring deep into the Mines or Skull Cavern in Stardew Valley, since the passive methods are too random to count on.
