In this Stardew Valley how-to guide, you'll learn how to find Linus' Blackberry basket that's lost somewhere in the valley. Here you'll learn where can you find the basket, what to do to unlock this quest and the rewards of returning the basket to Linus.

How to Get the Blackberry Basket Quest

During the Fall of your first year in the valley, you'll get a letter in the mail from Linus telling you that it is Blackberry season, but he can't seem to find his basket, so naturally, you'll be the one tasked with retrieving the basket for him.

Keep in mind that this letter will arrive on day eight regardless of the level of your relationship with Linus.

Where is Linus' Basket

Locating Linus' basket is really easy if you know where to look. All you have to do is go to the Bus Station that's to the right of your farm; once there, follow the street to the left until you enter the lower section of the Backwoods area.

The blackberry basket will be in this area, but its brownish color could make it difficult to spot. Nevertheless, you'll find the missing basket on the upper side of the street, just next to some bushes that are just outside the Tunnel entrance.

Click on the basket, and Once you have it in your inventory, find Linus and give it back to him.

By completing the "Blackberry Basket," you'll gain one friendship heart with Linus.

How to Find Linus

When you first start playing Stardew Valley, learning who is who can be a bit of a task, especially when it comes to characters like Linus, who doesn't live in the main areas of Pelican Town.

Linus is the villager who lives in a small tent near the mines. During the Fall, you'll usually find Linus near his tent, near the Spa, or on the left side of the lake.

However, just like it happens with every other villager in Stardew Valley, Linus' location will vary according to the season, the time of the day, and if it's raining or not, so you should check out Linus' schedule before returning his basket.
