The Borders Forest Trust (BFT) is an environmental charity that was formed in January 1996 by a group of people living and working in the Scottish Borders. The trust was established to enable the development of a range of integrated environmental, social and economic projects that would contribute towards the restoration of the area's native woodland heritage and the development of a new community-based woodland culture.

BFT works in partnership with community groups, agencies, NGOs and individuals, and is managed by a board of twelve membership-elected Trustees and a team of six staff. It has over 700 members and many active volunteers.
