Mike, I would suggest that natural=wood should be the first tag, if the area is a park then the next tag could be leisure=park. The OSM page on forest <http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:landuse%3Dforest>has good descriptions.
In Ethiopia often the Orthodox churches are in the middle of a small church forests and would be tagged natural=wood, and land_use=religious. I love trees but would shy away from tagging individual trees except for landmark type specimen. There is a lot of mapping to do without mapping trees.
