Season 1 (1x01): October 22, 2011 (because it's Emma's birthday)

Sason 5 (5x05): There are pumpkins...so Fall 2013

Season 5 (5x21): It's obviously close to Christmas based on the building decorations.

Season 6 (6x16): January/Febrary 2014 (because Hamilton is close to debut and Adam said it debuts 18 months earlier in Once) There's also the fall formal in 6x08, right? Or was it a winter formal? If it was a fall formal, I'd assume the plot point is more reliable than the set dressing, especially since they are filming in a real town so the set dressing could have nothing to do with them.
