Yea, this seems like poor planning. If you want to be able to survive a super volcano then leave the area hand have ~10 years food supply for humanity would be plenty. Remember, in the past they don't cause mass extinctions. So, both plant and animal species tend to survive it.

I think we (humanity) are sitting at a couple months now, on average. So... room for improvement!
