In .pod format (pod2man(1)) in /usr/src/crypto/openssl/docs/crypto.

We don't install the manpages by default yet. You can uncomment the
section in the secure/lib/libcrypto/Makefile if you don't mind it spamming
a whole bunch of system manpages by installing manpages of its own with
the same name (err.3, passwd.1, etc)

You can do blowfish encryption (plus a whole lot of other useful crypto
operations) from the commandline using openssl(1) - use is fairly
self-explanatory.
