Water percolates through soil due to gravity pulling it downward and the porous nature of soil allowing water to flow. If the soil is dry or if there is high demand for water from plants or evaporation, the water will continue to percolate through until the soil is no longer saturated. This can lead to ponds drying up if the rate of percolation exceeds the rate of water entering the pond.

How do you raise the water table of our well?

The best way would be to find a spot with very sandy soil so that water can percolate easily from the surface down into the aquifer. Then build a big pond over that spot. Keep the pond filled with water from rainwater or from a river or stream. As lots of water goes down into the aquifer from your pond, the water table in your well should rise.
