I used to have this problem. My analysis of the situation was that the end grain of the tenons was absorbing moisture, causing the tenons to swell. My home remedy has been to apply cork grease to the ends of the tenons (when they are dry and not binding) to seal them from absorbing excess moisture.
Others more knowledgable than I am, may respond with reasons why this shouldn't be done, but thus far I see no obvious ill effects, and the tenons have stopped binding.
