We can figure out
how
trees grow on this planet and
how
they came to be on this planet but what or who even CAN decide
why
they grow on this planet?

Or we can take these message boards being shut down as another example.
We can say
how
it is being shut down and we can say
how it came to be
being shut down either with short and sweet "The people in charge wanted to shut it down and are doing so." or in great detail reaching back through human history to before atoms and photons existed but as to
why
they are being shut down, who or what even CAN decide
why
anything on this planet is happening the way it's happening?
The people in charge can give their reason for shutting the message boards down and you can be satisfied that answers
why
it's being done but that's no different from asking "Why do trees grow on this planet?" and being satisfied with "Because humans grow them for food."

Because the environment allows it?
That's just one detail of the
how
.
I guess you could argue that maybe nothing has a purpose unless it becomes affected or it affects something else?..
"Purpose" is a myth. The carpenter can't build "purpose" into his chairs, anyone can use them for something else.
so there's not one single "why" but several ones?
Well, I would argue that you're thinking of various details of the
how
.
