Hi, FreeBSD does have an ARM port available. It does use device trees to specify hardware, but I don't know if the grammar is the same as that used in ARM linux. There is a specific FreeBSD port for Raspberry Pi, but I don't know if a BBB port is available.
The best place to check for this is the FreeBSD Wiki. You will need to be a pioneer to use FreeBSD on BBB. Best of luck, etc ...
