Dear Lari,
Thank you for contacting us about growing coffee plants. Coffee is a tropical crop and is not frost-tolerant. Unless you have a greenhouse, I would not recommend trying to grow it outside.
We do not have much information on growing coffee plants, but I did find a couple of articles that may help you:
