The Giver is set in the winter, at a time in the future, where the things we experience today are nothing more than memories.

From the text:

It was almost December, and Jonas was beginning to be frightened.

"Why don't we have snow, and sleds, and hills?" he asked. "And when did we, in the past? Did my parents have sleds when they were young? Did you?"
