You should do this manually.
Only a squared brush around every tree.

There’s an automatic method to clip models via a key (spawnflag).
But this could result in a very great number of clip brushes.

Edit:

You could take a look at goldrush and how SD has clipped the palms.

Is there some disadvantage to having many clip brushes?

when i used the spawnflags for clipping trucks it resulted in strange things… clips around the truck in places where the truck wasnt… so I suggest u do 1 clip and copy/paste it

Yes, bigger .bsp size and most of the time a complicated collision-detection. Use simple clip brushes whereever you can - try to avoid autoclipping (I was told so). :lookaround:
