Tiller Park

Finding Your Way There

Nestled at the crossroads of Key Boulevard and Sierra Avenue in Richmond, California, Tiller Park offers 2.7 acres of green escape from the urban hustle. It's strategically positioned along Interstate 80 at the edge of east Richmond's hills, creating a natural buffer between homes and highway noise - a little pocket of calm in the city landscape.

Play Areas for the Little Ones

If you've got kids in tow, the playground area won't disappoint. The play structure caters to everyone from wobbly toddlers to adventure-seeking preteens. Our favorite touch? The sand surrounding the equipment - watching kids dig, build, and let their imaginations run wild is always a treat. Both big kid and baby swings mean everyone gets their turn to fly. Beyond the playground, open lawn spaces invite impromptu games of tag or simply sprawling out with a good book.

Sports Spots

Bring your mitt and ball to make use of the baseball/softball field that anchors the park. It's generous enough for a proper game, but also great for an afternoon picnic if sports aren't your thing. Tennis enthusiasts will appreciate the tennis court, however remember to keep it clean and pet-free - nobody wants to chase balls through paw prints!

Park Practicalities

There are restroom facilities available, but they're not always open, so plan accordingly. One of Tiller's secret charms is that it rarely gets crowded. You'll typically find just a handful of neighbors enjoying this quiet community space.

For the Fur Families

The grassy field at Tiller has become something of an unofficial dog hangout, with plenty of room for energetic pups to chase balls and burn off energy. If you're bringing your four-legged friend, it's wise to pack a leash - especially when multiple dogs are around - to keep the peace among the canine crowd.

The Overall Experience

What makes Tiller special is its simple, unpretentious charm. It's clean, safe, and comfortably worn-in - like a favorite pair of jeans for the neighborhood. No matter if you're looking for a quick playground pit stop or somewhere to spend a lazy afternoon, this little park delivers without any fuss. The park welcomes visitors daily from 5 AM to 8 PM.
