I'd say the easiest way is to read through the Porter's Handbook. It's a 
very detailed guide on how to port applications to FreeBSD.

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/porters-handbook/

If it was me, I'd read through that and port it myself. You will learn 
how to do it and also feel good for contributing to FreeBSD. :)
