Joanne asked a good question. When is produce in season? In other words when is it at it's peak?  I have always taken as my guide the fact that seasonal produce is always at it's cheapest when it's a glut on the market. It's a win/win situation, cheap and at it's peak.
I did some research on the web and frankly found very little information. Here is a list for the United States that would serve as a guide if you look at what is available in Florida and Texas since the climates are similar (especially in the gulf), Louisiana is probably a good bet too.
There is a wonderful website called Mexico Cooks! and right now she is doing a series on what is available in the mercado in August in Morelia. Part 1 and Part 2 can be found by clicking on the links.
