It would be nice if the things you could farm depended not only on the season, but also on the temperature of the biome. So, maybe if you'd play in a cold or freezing biome, the default "farm seasons" would get shifted towards the colder side. That way, in a colder biome, the typical "winter plants" would be farmable during a longer part of the year, compared to a temperate biome, and the typical "summer plants" would not be farmable at all.. And ofcourse the reverse would apply aswell; In a hot biome, everything would shift towards the hot side.
By introducing such a system, some plants that could only be grown in extremly hot or cold environments could be introduced

I'm pretty sure this is already a thing, you can't farm pineapples in the same places you can wheat.

Though it would be nice if a particularly extreme difference in temperatures between winter and summer meant alternating crop-lists rather than just one set of crops having an off-season.

Yup, this is already in game. If you want it to actually matter for more crops, it's a simple matter of going into your raw files and changing more crops from [BIOME_ANY] or whatever it is to a couple specific ones instead.

Seasonal would be nice though, which isn't in the game. Although you can already hack that in yourself too in a more complicated fashion by giving seeds heat and cold damage values, which will cause the crops to get destroyed mid-growth if the actual tile temperature gets too extreme.
