FreeBSD is available via anonymous FTP.  That means that you use the
login "anonymous" and your email address as a password.

There's a list of FTP mirrors at:
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/mirrors-ftp.html

You copy the files via whatever method your FTP client supports.
Typically, a modern web-browser can handle an ftp:// URI and you can
drag-and-drop the files.  But you didn't even mention what platform
you're using.

Incidentally, there's a lot of stuff on the FTP site, and you're not
going to know what to download without consulting further resources.
The FreeBSD handbook is a good place to dive in.
