I think Dale may have already posted about this a while back, but today while I was randomly walking around Jo Ann Fabrics (waiting for another store to open) I found these premade wooden trees that are of a really good size for the figures I do (roughly 30mm or so tall). Here is a picture of them in the package.
They appear to be made in China (shocker!) distributed by a company in Florida called Sparrow Innovations, Inc. I haven't tried to find them online to see if they have other cool things or not.
They were a little pricey, about $2.25 per tree, but that's not so bad considering all you have to do is paint them and they are done. They already have a serviceable base on them.

Buying in bulk is not that expensive. How about 12 for $5? http://www.americanwoodcrafterssupply.com/catalog/?2_turned_wooden_christmas_trees&show=product&productID=270645
