  You can make toothpicks out of anything if you’re willing to find a hard bit in it that can be sharpened or whittled.

  Nope, that’s not how the definition of a tree works. Look at swednek’s definition in the comments: it is a woody trunk with branches. There are many other plants you could make toothpicks out of (e.g. that are woody) that aren’t trees. For example, shrubs and lianas.
