I've some experience with green decks. My approach is usually to
use cards like Rampant Growth or Sakura-Tribe Elder to fetch out
more land, as it helps to keep up the pressure on everyone else by
improving the odds of drawing cards you want. I also fully recommend
Harmonize. It'll help keep you going in a long, drawn-out game.
For flying creatures, I tend to go for Silklash Spider and Whirlwind.
Between them, they keep the sky pretty clear. I did have a deck built
around maximising the use of Evolution Charm for a while, it was good
fun to take a problematic creature up into the air and then swat it
back down again.
Other than that, I tend to go for aggressive, solid creatures; as
long as you have enough of the Aurochs going, that shouldn't be too
much of a problem. You might find Spidersilk Armor to be useful in
making your creatures more robust.
Other than this, please let us know if there are specific problems
you're having trouble dealing with, and we'll see what we can find.

No changelings? Colossus? Crib Swap? Nameless Inversion?
