If the society broke down into city states because of one of the many risk facing us came to fruition, why assume this would end farmer markets? The farms at risk for extreme weather and Global Warming, higher heat and drought and floods are large maga-farms with mono-crops that do not grow sustainably. They lack the soil depth and health and risk another dust bowl in the least.
Organic farms and permaculture farms are resistant to weather extreme and bounce back more easily. This is because they grow many crops along side perennials, have strong soils because the emphasize sustainability over profit. Many small farms though monocrop of annuals are small enough, surrounded by trees and other small farms growing different crops which helps yield stronger soils mostly because they cannot afford so many herbicides and fertilizers so most fall back on manure which is usually plentiful and cheap at least out here.
So most small farms are somewhat sustainable, even alley, and roof top ones are. And though a few also will likely fail for many reasons (economics ironically is the likest), most will survive. Yet many potential crisis we face today as they faced last time we were in a like Gilded
