Go free upon

Moving constantly in and out of his talk was Old Man Willow, and Frodo learned now enough to content him, indeed more than
enough, for it was not comfortable lore. Tom's words laid bare the hearts of trees and their thoughts, which were often dark and strange, and filled with a hatred of things that go free upon the earth, gnawing, biting, breaking, hacking, burning: destroyers and usurpers.

Go free means able to move around unhindered.
In this context it refers those creatures that can move around, instead of being fixed in one spot like the trees.
