My aikijustu instructor used to do shomenuchi ikkyo undo on a tree. He also wrapped his belt around the trund and did Fudokoriundo and judo shoulder thows. He would find a tree of medium size. Not so big as to be immovable and not to small as to be to easily moved. We would bow to the tree in the beginning and at the end of the exersise and say a small thank you. Now a days I give the tree a big hug.
