Stardew Valley throws random quests at you to complete so that you can have a respite between the banalities of day to day farm life. One of these is from Linus, the Pelican Town homeless person that lost his blackberry basket. You’ll have that basket back for him in no time. Here’s where Linus’ basket is in Stardew Valley.
Unfortunately, Linus himself gives no word on where the basket could be, because he doesn’t remember. Fortunately, what Linus can’t tell you, we can!
You’ll first receive the message in your mailbox about Linus’ basket on the Fall 8 in Year 1. Once you’ve read the message, you can then proceed to track down his missing item.
How to Find Linus’ Basket in Stardew Valley (Where Linus’ Basket Is)
Linus’ basket can be found by the side of the road near the tunnel in the Backwoods area.
From your farm, head east. This will lead you to the bus stop area where you’re going to want to walk onto the actual road and then follow it west.
Head down the road and off-screen to the left will lead you to another area where, upon reaching the end of the road, you will find the basket laying off the side. Grab it when you’re there!
Here’s a picture of the specific area in Stardew Valley, in case it helps you.
Once you pick up the basket, you can head back to Linus who is found usually in his tent west of the mines and then you can go ahead and give it back to him.
If you somehow manage to lose the basket, you can make your way to the Lost and Found box in Lewis’ manor to grab it from there. However, it’s worth noting that you cannot use or sell Linus’ basket, so don’t worry, you can’t lose it forever.
Congratulations on completing this quest!
It’s definitely worth pursuing as it gives you a quick buck, but even better, it brings you closer to Linus. He’s a nice guy and his story is very endearing. Plus, more friends the merrier, right?
