Even a small battle needs some terrain. Terrain creates obstacles, provides cover when shooting, and looks nice. Serious wargamers might spend a lot of money on structures and terrain or invest hours in creation of artistic stuff. But that is not necessary. Remember, a terrain feature is supposed to be suggestive of a real thing but cannot be an exact replica in miniature. Even a small building should not be exactly to scale or it will use up too much surface area on your table. Each structure needs a small footprint.
The dollar store has cheap foam board that can be cut with a hobby knife. A building is just a box with a roof on it. Anybody can make a box with some white glue. If you watch for deals on ebay you can snag a bridge or whatever at low cost. Trees should be purchased. You can find them in a hobby store or online. Get the kind with roots so you can glue them to a base. One bag of trees should be more than sufficient.
