Baruch Institute of Coastal Ecology & Forest Science (Clemson University) both established on Hobcaw Barony, a former rice plantation purchased by her father. Upon her death in 1964, the property was transferred to the Belle W. Baruch Foundation for the creation a nature and research preserve. Hobcaw Barony is located on Waccamaw Neck in Georgetown County, South Carolina.
