What kind of file??
You can probably get a good trace off of that itself if you want vectors. Or you can import it as a 3d component if that's what you want.

Using a File is not advised for a Tree as a Rasp would cut better :D

And a raspberry to you, too.

From Wikopedia: "Blowing a raspberry, strawberry or making a Bronx cheer, is to make a noise that may signify derision, real or feigned."

This took less that 5 minutes. File attached
I used the bitmap trace on the image you provided.
I used a prism Vcarve, a pocket, and a profile.
