It means those fruits and vegetables that are available at the time of year they are typically harvested. For example, peas and strawberries are 'Spring crops'. They may be available all year round in certain parts of the world, but are seasonally available in the Spring.

This phrase is likely used most by restaurants who offer vegetable side dishes or fruit salads and desserts. Rather than have to change their menus each season, restauranteurs will often write 'seasonally available' in the menu description for the dish. This means that it will be prepared with whatever fruits and vegetables that are most available and cost efficient for them to use at that particular time of year.
Certain fruits and vegetables are only seasonal. Which means that they are oly available, or ripe, during certain seasons. Watermellon, for example, is usually the best during summer. Check your local farmers market for seasonal fruits and veggies that aren't shipped and frozen.
