You might try the state conservation department, actually. The state of the honeybee in the U.S. is pretty dire right now.

An easy way to find out is go to you local hometown grocery store (not a walmart, etc) and look at the honey and see if any labels are from locals. My grandfather and a good friend of his used to keep bees and would sell a lot of honey at local grocery stores, healthfood stores and farmer's markets and even some farm and home stores. Most labels have a name and address on them. Any of those options would most likely get you a name to call. Since I have beekeeping in my past, I notice honey sections and I frequently see honey from local suppliers.
I've helped my grandfather get bees like the ones in your yard. As long as they are in a small tree and not taking residence inside a hollowed out part, they are pretty easy to get out. If they are inside a hollowed out part of a tree, they can be pretty hard to get out without sawing the tree. FWIW, another reason to shop for local honey suppliers is honey and bee pollen are also good to help cut down on allergies but they in work best if you buy locally produced honey made from the nectar and pollen from your region.
