Microchip has a number of development boards available. Have you looked on their web site?

Another source of boards is Olimex. Sparkfun and others carry some of these boards.

@byuri

If I were you I will not buy a development board.
I will simply solder stuff on a vero board.
Its more fun for you and your pocket  ;D

man price of the development boards are out of the question

-or just use a breadboard with PIC, they come in many sizes and I use them all the time for microcontroller hobby projects.
