Actress Jenna Ortega took a break from filming the new season of her Netflix series Wednesday, to visit a farm in Co Kildare .

The 22-year-old star has an impressive list of acting credits but gained international fame as the namesake of the Netflix series Wednesday.

On one break from filming last week, Ortega found herself on a visit to a farm in Naas, Co Kildare that raises and trains working sheepdogs. Irish Working Sheepdogs took to social media to announce their VIP guest and some of her friends.

"Look who popped in to say hi and see the dogs at work,” they wrote, alongside pictures of Jenna holding some sheepdog puppies. “We were so happy to have the wonderful Jenna Ortega and friends come and see the demonstration while they stay here in Ireland.”
