What did you do in the garden today?

Hi everyone, just popping in to ask a question! I’m not a gardener, or know my plants, so it would be of great help if anyone can help me figure out what these little orange berries are. I live in central California and I have never seen these little items before...

Looking forward to someone from Cali to answer. I found a wild currant tomato tree. How big is the fruit?

One is our Labrador other is our Mareema Sheepdog first time they took it from one of the cats .. we also have moles... I will use my walking stick to find the whole in the mound .. they get them from the yard also

I've been looking for a pup and may have found a pyr/ Anatolian mix. - I did look for a maremma but couldn't find an active breeder in the area to talk to.

Possibly
I can take anything for an answer right now, I’ve never seen currants before.

the spring in the northwest comes on in a rather nebulous way. this winter has been mostly mild, the garlic is already 3 inches tall and the weeds are already vying for space. I planted my potatoes last fall, when I planted my garlic, the strawberries are now completely died back... all three are getting my attention now with a little pecking away at weeding here and there. nipping things in the bud is my ideal, and as winter wafts back and forth between spring, I find that now is a very good time to catch those persistent weeds before they get big. I also keep putting out the offerings of beer to the slug gods, and surprisingly, the slugs really don't seem to get slowed down much by the cold, so I feel like getting them now is like dead heading the weeds before they spread their seeds! for every slug I drown now, I figure I'm curtailing dozens that I would otherwise have to fight in the spring once there is vegetation to munch and they all start breeding.

I don't like poison - but every morning when I water, I have to empty every spring mousetrap I have. I don't even make a dent in the mouse population.

Not that it is an INSTANT SOLUTION,,,,, but look at my Avatar,,, (no,, not the serama ) I do not have a mice problem.
