Idioms  

1. At the right time, opportunely, as in “The two young men desired to get back again in good season” (Charles Dickens, Martin Chuzzlewit , 1844).

2. Available and ready for eating, or other use; also, legal for hunting or fishing. For example, Strawberries are now in season , or Let me know when trout are in season and I'll go fishing with you .
