I agree with Determined, run vinyl tubing to the trees.
Then put a loop of "emitter hose" (not soaker hose) around the drip line of each tree. The emitter hose has tiny metered holes that allow a small amount of water to drip out. The flow is small enough that all the hoses build the same pressure regardless of the distance or order, so all deliver the same approximate volume. You can pretty much leave the water on full time.
Then cover the hoses with grass clippings or bark to hold the moisture.
You can buy the hose and fittings at HD, Lowes, many hardware stores, garden supply. They have charts showing the flow rates, line size, pressure recommendations. They do require clean water though.
