My thought reading that article was that "safe haven farms" are also not actual prepardness for disasters.
Where does he imagine he would be getting fertilizer from?
How does he imagine he would survive a hurricane running over them?
Who is running the hospital that does not exist on them?
And so on.
Forcing him to confront that might have made him realize "preparing for calamity required us to take the very same measures as trying to prevent one" actually means.
Disaster preppers are unaware of just how miserable it would be to be stuck in a bunker with nobody but them.

The Roadside Geology series only covers the United States by state - except that California gets two books, because it has a lot of geology and also a lot of roads (Alaska only gets one) : https://mountain-press.com/collections/roadside-geology .
But the AMNH has published some guide books for NYC in particular. Some examples:

A note:
The Head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics got fired by Trump for not lying for him.
The Labor Secretary is apparently okay with that.
